    No thanks. I’m headed to work in the dark regardless if it’s DST or Standard. Let me at least see the sun on my way home.

      Oh, well, I mean, study after study has shown permanent daylight time is terrible for childrens’ development, but if it’s convenient for you I guess we should lol

        Not sure where they did this study, but around here, kids that have to be at school for 8:00 are going in during the dark regardless of DST or not. Plus, they already delayed the switch by nearly a month “for the children” so they are not out in the scary dark for Halloween. So which is it?

          On the solstice sure, but you still increase the number of days per year when that happens.
