Posts from Hondo Duke Lane in thread „Daylight Saving Time“

    The majority of the people like the idea that longer and later days give them a chance to do things they can't do with shorter daylight. Most people Carl don't spend time on the porch like they did in the past when they have a/c.


    Yes the humidity is bad and I don't like it either, but they like it better than being cold. By the way, I'm with you Carl. I just know what people like and they want hot days and longer daylight nights.


    Cheers :cool:

    I'm afraid that we are in a minority in this decision, Ringo. There are too many people who want this. I'm not sure it they wanted it this soon. But I haven't heard many complaints except from me.


    By the way the atomic clock which has a lot to do with some of my settings have not responded to the change and will not do so until April 1. So, the atomic clock in my computer did not change, the clock on my cell phone has not changed, the internal clock on my XM radio did not change, my VCR didn't make the change and some of my clocks didn't do it either on my watches or alarms. I think I have 10 clocks that cannot change until April 1.


    I guess that the atomic time commission didn't approve this measure. Oh, they are international, and don't answer to the congress. Now if we can just get them out and put the right people in to stop doing stupid things like they do. By the way, your tax dollars in action.


    Cheer :cool:

    Of course I am totally against Daylight Savings Time; what an idiot thing to say. It's not fun getting up to work in the dark (by the way it uses more energy). Sunrise isn't until after 7 a.m. for the moment. And the school children are having to wait for the bus in the dark. That's really smart, they could are more likely to be hit by a vehicle. :coffee:


    They should call it golfer's time since they are the only ones who smile, so they can play an extra 18 holes of golf while others have to work to make them happy. Oh, be careful they might put in a double daylight standard time so the golfers can play 72 holes of golf every afternoon. That's what they want.


    Leave the time alone!!! Not a fan of daylight after 9 p.m. That doesn't make me smile. :angry:


    Cheers :cool:
