    We need to leave the time like it is now, or if anything turn it the other way. It does not need to get dark at 530.

    I've got no issues with the extra hour of sleep in Fall. The spring forward really messed with my system though losing an hour of sleep is a killer for me. It takes me a couple of weeks to get fully acclimated to the time change.

    I hate the time change both times of the year. I wish they could just decide on one and stick with it. It really doesn’t seem like such a difficult thing to do. Ours go back next Saturday night.:headbang::confused:

    Same old crap. Most of the people do not want clock change. Still it happens twice every year.

    I just wish I could understand why. Seems like 90% of the people I talk to don’t like it. It also seems like a seemingly simple thing to undo. I guess that’s why we aren’t in politics Dennis!

    MOST of Arizona. Navajo Nation still does - the northeast quarter of the state.

    I hear this a lot...not sure why it doesn't affect me, but isn't it just like staying up an hour later or earlier than you did yesterday?

    Just another example of man thinking he has some control over the natural laws of nature and tries to change things to suit his desires.

    Kinda like the forerunner of global cooling alarmists.....er, um, warming that is! :rofl: :lol:
