Don't forget to make your blanket shorter tonight.

Set your clocks back one hour.

Old Indian is right, DST is dumb! Just leave it like it is year round, I think we'd be okay.

Here it is 6:41 p.m. and you'd think it was midnight, because it's dark. Oh, how I long for the warm days of summer and how it's daylight until 9 p.m.

I don't know of anybody who likes the time change in the fall, and how it's dark at 5:30 p.m. I believe the majority of people would much prefer the extra daylight in the evening.

The whole deal with Daylight Savings Time is just plain and simple - outdated. This country runs 24-7 every day. It's not like times people lived in back when DST was implemented.

  We're on standard time right now,  this is how it was before DST was ever created.

  If we were on DST right now you would have a little more light in the evening,  it'd probably be dark when you go to work in the morning though.

  Right now,  under  standard daylight time the sun is at it's highest point in the sky at 12 noon,  that's why they call it high noon.   Under DST the sun is at it's highest point at 1 pm.

Well, I believe the majority of people would much prefer the extra daylight in the evening hours as they're getting off from work. At least I know that's what my family members and my buddies and I would prefer.

But, as Robbie said, "Just leave it like it is year round." There's just no need nowadays to change in the spring and fall.
