It is not that simple: it depends if you "lose" the hour in the morning or in the evening. I myself prefer the standard time so that I can have lighter mornings in the fall when days get shorter. Some other people may prefer that extra light hour in the evening.

Yeah that's true. I'd probably miss that. But then again those lighter hours are temporary, at least where I live, where winter eventually envelops it all in darkness anyway
Same here, Malachi. The extra hour is a fleeting bonus that lasts two-three weeks before it's up in the dark and come home in the dark. I'm thinking that entire populations go thru this ridiculous effort solely for the benefit of those living at a particular latitude.

DeleteIf China can deal with one time zone, then Daylight Savings regions can afford to pass up a single hour.
ReplyDeleteI hate Daylight Savings so much. Such a pointless exercise.
Hear hear!
