Do we really Save Daylight or just shift it around to be used at another time during the day ?

****! This is the lose an hour one.

Interesting info (source = girlfriend) - There are more fatal car accidents the Monday morning following the time change than any other day in the year.

I wish we would do away with DST, all it does is mess with everyone's sleep schedules which takes a bit to get into a new groove.-Mezz

Proponents say it saves energy as there is more daylight when people are up and about--less electrical use. Couldn't prove it by me.

I enjoy day light until near 9 pm in the summer!

I think we should start on a system where every Saturday at 2am we roll the clocks back 1 hours and then every Friday at 2pm we roll the clocks ahead 1 hour. Longer weekend and shorter Friday...

I live in South Bend Indiana, and until a few years ago we never had to touch our clocks. I guess the wizards of smart thought it was better for business to be on EST.

Imagine thoughts of a cow, Spring ahead and now you get to eat early, Happy cow we all see on the commercials. But then in the fall play games and make them eat later. No wonder there is such a think as mad cow disease. Its not a disease, they are just plain tired of being messed with. Even my dog does not like it. This morning I do my normal routine start the coffee, take the dog to the door to let him out, he looked back with sad eye's, and I think he said. "Your a crewel bastard, it is not my time to go yet". If animals that depend on our schedule could vote, they would object to DST guaranteed.
