Ah, Standard Time... - A Black Falcon - 2nd November 2008

I don't mind it, but some people are really bothered by the fact that it's fully dark by 4:30... I will admit though, it is kind of a shock really, going from 5:30 one day to 4:30 the next. I liked things better when DST ended a bit earlier so there was a bit more time to adjust...

But yeah, even though I was expecting it and don't mind, it sure seemed to get dark very early today.


Ah, Standard Time... - Dark Jaguar - 2nd November 2008

Not dark yet here, but we're further south I suspect.

Personally I think it's rather stupid to bother with time switching like this all the time. Some states don't bother, and they seem to be getting along just fine, which I think would be evidence enough that all the arguments one might make in their favor are rather false. I mean just pick whether it's "savings" or "standard" we want to lock into and just go with it forever. Again, if you think there's any problems, I'm just going to point to the states that don't bother with it and don't have those problems, so don't bother.
