Dude, I can pretty much fall asleep on demand. But I do not demand to fall asleep at the exact same time every night.Folks really go to bed to the minute? They really fall right to sleep like clockwork? And don’t get me started on the people that feed their dogs the same time every day. Order is rare in nature, including ours…
I demand you go to sleepDude, I can pretty much fall asleep on demand. But I do not demand to fall asleep at the exact same time every night.
Huh. I dunno why that didn't work. Maybe it only works when I demand it.I demand you go to sleep

I don’t think that’s true. I hate all my relatives.That's the difference between you and I. I am an absolutist you are a relativist
Every year?
You will be eventually changing daytime and nighttime hours. If the sun rises about 7:20AM this year, it will rise at 8:20AM next year, then 9:20AM, etc., etc. If you make an annual change in one direction, you have to make an annual change in the other direction.
Did you mean to use purple text?
You will say that DST is a small thing, and that’s probably true, but it is also a lesson in how irrational bureaucratic measures can perpetuate themselves long after everybody has learned to despise them and their only purpose for existing has been refuted. DST is insidious for its contagious properties and because it remains just below the threshold of serious annoyance required to animate opposition. It is nevertheless a noxious exercise in social engineering that nobody should have to put up with.
I love it! Makes my life better...Why Daylight Saving Time is Stupid
The twice-annual clock fiddling ritual is a pointless pain in the ass and it should be abolished everywherewww.eugyppius.com
A reasonable and straightforward take on the flawed origins and continued silliness of coonfingering all the clocks.

At the end of the day, when presented with a choice of changing clocks twice or the sunset an hour earlier than we now have, most working families, I know, want that evening sun.
You're probably right but why not adjust the clocks to an hour that best supplies that coveted evening daylight and be done with it? I'm indifferent to how we choose to align our clocks and the sun. It's the physical changing of the clocks that makes no sense. But if we must.... Central Time!At the end of the day, when presented with a choice of changing clocks twice or the sunset an hour earlier than we now have, most working families, I know, want that evening sun.
I’m still lobbying for UTC. When I am Grand Poobah of the US, (GPOTUS) I will abolish timezones. While I’m at it I will also abolish HOA’s and bike lanes.Indeed, the truth shall set you free!

Nobody wants to change the clocks twice per year and nobody wants less evening sun for the few winter months enough to continue that ridiculous ritual. They'd all rather set it and forget it - most but not all, it seems, on "summer" time.
Try making an argument for less evening sun during the (already less sunny) winter months, THAT is the only argument you'd have for continuing to switch back and forth.
I'll be waiting. Never happens, my friend.
According to the New England Journal of Medicine, traffic crashes increase by around 8% on the Monday after Daylight Saving Time starts due to the loss of sleep.
Because the mommies didn't like it dark so late in the morning in winter. So the Solomon esque solution was to change back in the winter.why not adjust the clocks to an hour that best supplies that coveted evening daylight and be done with it?
