Title: Another feel good do nothing solution debunked.
Post by: Maverick on March 07, 2008, 12:38:15 PM

I never thought much of this idea and was always happy that Arizona didn't bother with switching time twice a year.

I think that the crops like it. It helps them to ascertain weather it's light or dark outside.

The recent expansion of DST has done nothing but cause problems in the IT world.  We're still trying to get things sorted.

I like them because they make the time difference between Brasil and Texas shorter, only 2 hours during DST. Kind of a selfish reason I suppose, but that is what I like about it.

When March rolls around, I like finally waking up to daylight. Then it all fuggin changes again, and I"m waking up in pitch black.  It sucks.  Just leave the fuggin clocks alone.
