    Even with the extra hour I don’t always get to enjoy it.

    TAkes a couple of weeks to get used to the time change. Still makes no sense to me, especially this late in the year.

    I’ll be glad to get that extra hour of sleep back. I’ve been tired since March.

    There has to be a way someone is making a lot of money because of DST. That is the only reason for it I can come up with.

    I use it to move my wakeup time back to 6.Over the year, it steadily seems to drift towards 6:30

    Food for thought: They still claim that daylight savings time saves energy, but in ever year since 2005 the change saved less than 0.5%. Shopping, baseball and other daylight activities got a HUGE revenue boom from it though.

    The semi-annual switch onto and off of daylight-savings time is one of the stupidest, least productive ideas ever dreamed up by humanity. A hundred years from now, civilized people will look back on it as aghast as we are today at Chinese foot binding, another complete and utter waste of human time and energy.

    Interesting. So there are even different dates when the time is changed to DST. In Europe the clocks have been changed to DST last week (and the Mallorcan local government simply refused to participate, now Spain has two time zones).

    I like the post from the guy who thinks someone must be making money from DST. Yes, it’s a conspiracy designed to further control us! Sure it is.

    But, seriously, didn’t DST originally have some agricultural purpose? Not that it would have a real effect on a growing season but I have little if any knowledge of such things. But I seem to remember good intentions that, unfortunately weren’t good for everyone.

    DST doesn’t really affect me and it works for BigPuma so all’s well as far as I can see, selfish guy that I am. If I’m OK with something then everyone must be OK with it, right? I’m “one way.” That’s what my pals and I called that. First guy: “Hey, loan me a buck willya?”

    Second guy: “No can do. Only got 5.”

    First guy: “Whaddaya? One way?”

    I can remember back before this nonsense came back. Businesses had what they called “summer hours” if they wanted the change, without forcing it on everyone else.

    It’s mostly the merchants that like it. Farmers have always been opposed.
