Comments on: More Daylight Savings Time (Great) http://steelwhitetable.org/2005/07/20/more-daylight-savings-time-great/ Because mom always liked you best!

Messing with that schedule makes these useless. Cuz now I'll have to manually change them in March, they'ss readjust themselves in April (forcing another manual change), then they'll readjust in October (another manual change) and then another change in November. Technology! Next, they'll be moving the date for leap years.

"oh it's winter, now we're on winter school time, and go to school at 9:00 instead of 8:00" then no one has to worry about fucking with their clocks all the time.. :/ Stick to one time zone, and then let things like schools change their times. “oh it’s winter, now we’re on winter school time, and go to school at 9:00 instead of 8:00″

then no one has to worry about fucking with their clocks all the time.. :/

I see it from a political point of view, obviously screwing up the synchronization would be badish. I dunno. We work with americanos in eastern time and we're atlantic time, it doesn't really affect us that much. Actually, it gives us a morning break, not having meetings before 9am our time and stuff. I agree, we should just stick to one time and that's it. Boohoo for the little children walking to school on more slippery roads in the dark. If they're too stupid to skip all of school or invent teleporters then to hell with them! Canada is too densely populated anyhow. I did, I don’t see the pain in the ass.

It's going to create more headaches. Put the clocks ahead, or put them back, but it should be just one set time and leave it at that. Read the article. It’s going to create more headaches.

I'm glad for it, I want to get out of winter mode as soon as possible. I hate leaving work at 4:00pm and it's almost dark out. Hate it! If there were a real energy crisis then there would be household and corporate limits on consumption. Why is it a big pain in the ass?
