I'm with waugsqueke. If we can keep it on the summer mode, I'd be happy. |

How about just fixing the clocks so that they run fast during the day, and slow at night. Then we could get an extra hour (or more, the sky's the limit!) of daylight, EVERY DAY! |

Aha! The perfect place for another midwest, hick story.... living in Indiana, we don't change time, so half the year we're on Eastern time (right now) and for the other half we're on Central time. I must say that I like alzz's suggestion though.... |

Changing clocks only seems like a pain because most people procrastinate. We should just be doing twenty seconds every day. |

If you turn your clocks back in summer the extra hour of daylight means your curtains will fade, your chickens won't lay their eggs on time and your milking cows will have the milk go sour in their udders because they won't be milked until an hour later <grin> ...UB^) |

Does it worry anyone else that Daylight Savings time occurs on April Fool's Day. I can't help but think the whole thing is a prank. |

Yep! Absterge is right, flowers are red and green leaves are green and that's the way things have always been seen. |

Susen, I'm not sure. Do you like not changing times or would you rather change? It would be nice to get some emprical data. |
|

I'm going to go against the flow here and admit that I enjoy the clocks being changed every six months. Not for any practical reason but because I can always depend on at least one of the dozy members of my cricket team to get it wrong, thus laying themselves open to six months of abuse and mickey-taking. |
