Day Light Savings Time

[racerxxx]

For those of you who follow it, it's a week away! It's a sign of spring to me and more day light to work by.

it is a big PITA that should be eliminated ... or for the true believers: do daylight savings time year around.

Psssssttttt ... hopefully the true believers will wake up some day and realize they are just getting up an hour earlier, not that the wonderful government gave you an extra hour of sunlight.

I will stop the rant here.

I'M READY FOR IT!!! The weather is still crazy around here in KY though. Yesterday the 4th it got up to almost 60, but tomorrow the 6th we are supposed to get a dusting of snow! Then this weekend it is going to be in the 60's!! Oh well looks like i'll get to test ride the my gtx this weekend since it just got a fuel system resto.

It was originally started to help conserve electricity. A few studies have been done recently to see if it actually helps, check google!

I wish they did DST all year round. I hate getting out of work and it being dark already. Could care less if I'm going to work in the dark, but sure does suck to come home in the dark.

NO MORE TIME CHANGES! THIS MADE ME AN HOUR EARLY FOR WORK!

My wife set the clock ahead Sunday night after I already did. I didn't notice until I was changing CDs in my truck and the radio came on...I was already more than half way there. BOYCOTT!

At least you weren't late

One of my nieces and her husband did that.
I don't understand why the second person wouldn't notice that the current time was wrong.

I like it, we're at the far west side of EST which means in the summer it doesn't get dark until 9:00 to 9:30 which means more lake time.

Right there with you Lou. I'm loving the longer light at night already.

Could have been worse. Boss let me go home early at least.

Saw this on Wikipedia and it shows what countries use DST.
