wolfriverjoe 1,351 #12 October 22, 2009 QuoteQuoteP.S : This is a fucking stupid practice and should be stopped. Agreed. It's pointless. I'm going to disagree. Here in Wisconsin, if we didn't have daylight savings time, the sun would rise around 4am and set around 8pm in high summer. DST makes it so it sets at 9pm, effectively giving us an extra hour of daylight (we wouldn't be up that early, so it just goes to waste). Going back to standard time, even though it makes dusk come as early as 5 in December, gives us dawn no later than 7:30 or so."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

Andrewwhyte 1 #16 October 23, 2009 You know, we've been saving daylight since 1916. Isn't it about time we started spending a bit? (shamelessly stolen from last night's idiot box). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DavidB 0 #17 October 23, 2009 Winter 1973/74 during the "first Arab oil embargo" daylight savings time stayed in effect over that winter. Personally I loved having an extra hour or daylight in the evening & didn't mind going to work in the dark in the AM. There was, however, a big outcry about THE CHILDREN having to catch their bus to school in the dark, so it hasn't happened in the US since. I suppose the most logical thing to do would be to adjust the clocks 30 minutes & split the difference. It'll never happen; makes too much sense.When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
