Quote:What about non-fucking Arizona?
You mean the retirement communities like Sun City? So much alzheimer's there that if they do get up they can't remember why!
Did you "spring forward"?

Daylight saving time does not lengthen daylight, but it shifts the clock during the summer to make the typical times when people are awake and using electricity better coincide the hours of daylight. Hence the “saving” portion of daylight saving time. My body wakes me up at the same 'time' every day. If you move that time from darkness into light, my day will be spent more in daylight. My night is a lot more flexible. Once the days activities are done, the daylight isn't as meaningful.
For Indiana the DST works, the sun sets at almost 9 PM in high summer.
Those of you who hate DST would have been doubly pissed with "Double War Time" during WWII.
Once I was retired, Daylight Savings Time became irrelevant.
