Daylight Savings Time (Page 3/4) Raydar NOV 05, 10:43 PM Another vote for permanent DST. I hate when it gets dark at supper time. Makes me cranky (even crankier?) all winter. cliffw NOV 06, 08:19 AM quote Originally posted by Raydar: Another vote for permanent DST. I hate when it gets dark at supper time. Makes me cranky (even crankier?) all winter. Why all the cry babies ? I used to go from working an all night 12 hour shift to working a 12 hour daylight shift. . When I go to Florida I lose an hour of time, sort of. Days are still 24 hours. I like maryjane, use a body clock. Like all animals. Whoa are those with jet lag. blackrams NOV 06, 08:24 AM quote Originally posted by cliffw: Why all the cry babies ?

I like maryjane, use a body clock. Like all animals. Whoa are those with jet lag. Most of us have that internal clock, I wake early every morning whether I want to or not. Being retired, it doesn't matter in most cases what time the clock is showing. The bigger issue is our government taking another step in controlling our lives. That pisses me off. It's the little things that count as we gradually go WOKE. Rams williegoat NOV 06, 09:18 AM I've just got one thing to say. Raydar DEC 14, 07:16 PM In previous years, others have posted a graphic of a calendar / time line, that shows relative daylight vs darkness, and what time it happens, each day. Does anyone still have that? I keep saving it, and then I can't find it. blackrams DEC 14, 07:21 PM quote Originally posted by Raydar: In previous years, others have posted a graphic of a calendar / time line, that shows relative daylight vs darkness, and what time it happens, each day.

It's very close, except the one I'm looking for has a graphic, with a time line. williegoat DEC 14, 07:44 PM The incidence of accidents involving pedestrians goes up in the week following the time change every year. Drivers are simultaneously impaired by both lighting conditions and sleep deprivation. MarkS DEC 15, 07:12 AM I kinda prefer ST, seems my body clock is stuck on it. I hate waking up 1 hour too early during DST. One reason for ST I've read in the past is because the kiddies head to school in the dark during the winter in DST (this was in 73 when it was done because of the oil embargo ). cliffw DEC 15, 08:24 AM quote Originally posted by williegoat: The incidence of accidents involving pedestrians goes up in the week following the time change every year.
