Here we go.
Changing the clock every six months is just stupid. Accomplishes exactly nothing.

I don't care which way, or even I vote to split the difference. Just no clock changing!
I think the whole thing is pretty silly. I have a variable schedule and I’m often getting up at different times and bouncing between time zones so it doesn’t bother me but it still seems pointless to me and to do more harm than good.
Was just wondering what others thought.

Bingo!
I like it the way it is too.
Warmer weather stays light out later and makes it more special.
Colder weather and the holidays in the winter, sun comes up earlier.

I say leave it alone, keep it.

I assume most people want more daylight in the evening and that includes me.
When I lived in Tampa years ago and we had less daylight in the summer compared to where I'm at now in Ohio. So keep in mind there's a difference depending where you live.
The kiddos walking in the dark to school seems to be the scaremonger. The new TV news trend is sleep experts saying it's best to have less light in the evening.

My 6 year old daughter is non-verbal autistic. She has a set routine, and that routine is set to her biological clock, not the clock on the wall. Every DST change, it takes about 2 weeks to get her adjusted. Everything in her routine, from the time she wakes to the time she goes to bed, is thrown off by an hour. We've already had 2 meltdowns today because to her, she was woken up an hour too early and had to eat breakfast an hour too early. To the representatives who stalled and shelved the DST bill last year, I hope the fleas of a thousand camels forever infest their pubic hairs.
Go on DST and stay there.

Skip the spring one, Just do the fall.
I hate changing the time on all the devices in my house. Right now I'm at 28 but I might find more.
I hate not having light when I get home to do my chores.

Man, it gets late early
I hated the winter months when I was working 6-12s many years ago. It would be dark when I left the house and dark when I got home. On DST, I at least had a little bit of daylight to cut the grass, throw a ball with the kids, or take them fishing.
