re: One Hundred Years Later, the Madness of Daylight Saving Time Endures

People who like standard time, with it getting dark earlier, are probably all fatasses who just go home after work and sit on the couch watching TV.

If you have outdoor hobbies, that extra daylight after work to do those hobbies is why you work. Plus, you can knock out yard work after work and have your weekends free to do more outdoor hobbies.

Again, we're talking about a difference of an hour.

Without Daylight Saving Time, it would still be daylight until 8-8:30 every night during the summer. That's plenty of time for me to get after work hobbies and yard work done.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that it will be daylight much later in the summer, regardless of Daylight Savings Time.

I would gladly trade a little more daylight in the mornings for the daylight from 8 to 9 PM that Daylight Savings Time gives me.
