I’m with you, they need to do away with it and stay on standard time year round, you don’t save any energy you either use it in the morning or evening
I like it being lighter later so let’s keep it that way
I like daylight savings time. When visiting Japan wished they did it for the summer at least. Sun rises at 4:30 or so and sets at maybe 7:30 iirc? Would like an hour forward with that.
As an IT person, I can very clearly remember the last time DST was adjusted, right around 2007....endless firmware updates, patches, checks, etc....please leave it alone, I don't feel like going through that again.
I think it was an old Native American proverb or observation....only a white man can take a foot off the top of blanket, sew it to the bottom of the same blanket and think he has more blanket.

Agree, pick one or the other and stick to it. I believe the DST would be better but at this point, just choose and move on.
Crazy fact, that not everyone my be familiar with but, if a state chooses, as Hawaii and Arizona already do, states can stay on standard time.
Only if a state would choose to make the savings time (March to November) permanent would it need to get congressional approval.
I thought Indiana too, but that is probably wrong/
I love it. Makes for long summer daylight. Suck it up buttercup.
I like that part. I just don't like the back and forth. Pick one. Stick with it.
Yeah it used to be that some counties in Indiana did not change, though that practice ended a few years ago
I heard the Nebraska state legislature is considering a bill to lock in standard time, but it is contingent on neighboring states also opting in. So it doesn't sound like it will happen.
I think it's just some politicians hearing complaints and going after low hanging fruit. But I'm just going off what I heard and I refuse to look into it further. Maybe it's the other way around.
