It's not effecting me, though it might affect me. Will have to wait and see what effects are effected.

Daylight Savings Time is kind of like a Jew thing, in the sense that it makes you believe you are getting more daylight, but actually the day is exactly the same and you just shifted the clock one hour forward. It's a total scam.

(Yes, I'm a boomer) In my sixty-plus years, I think I can honestly say that I have never been affected by the changing of the clocks. Yes, today is an hour shorter, and Oct/Nov will be an hour longer, but it's just another Sunday. I woke up, did my day, and will go back to bed.

Life goes on.

I think it is stupid and was a way to keep the farmers on the same schedule as the cities about 100 years ago.

I've read claims that it is older than we think and that the Romans did it. What's ignored is how the Romans did it - they just made their sun dials have an hour longer. They didn't do what we do which is stupid. Sadly, I don't remember where I read that so I can't cite my source.

Had to change all the clocks. The neighbor, Geppetto, burned his house down in anger.

I wasted time changing clocks. The day still has exactly as much light.

I think it should stay on daylight savings time for the whole year. Why have less sunlight in the day?
