Daylight Savings Time. A poll.

[VOLS INC.]

Do you like or dislike Daylight Savings Time? I’m sure this topic already has a thread. But I figured rather than digging it up, I’d start a new one and include a poll.

This is more complex to me than it should be. I'm good with leaving it all as it is. It really doesn't bother me at all changing times. I'm used to it. They already changed the months anyway.

That said, if there is going to be a permanent change then keep it standard. I am against keeping it forward.

If that man makes my summer nights shorter, I am calling for a recount!

This is my only concern. I love to do some porch sitting in the summer. Come off the golf course and sit a little bit with a glass of whiskey. The later the sun stays out the better.

Yes! Golf, lake life, or late evening motorcycle rides are all better with sunset later at night!

Get rid of STANDARD time.

This…. I voted wrong actually lol

Yeah it is standard time that sucks the life out of you in the winter.

 

[just bob]

Get rid of STANDARD time.

No.

Beginning to realize I don’t know much about any of this.

When it comes to time, I’m a total sheep. I just do what I’m told. Never really questioned it. Which is funny because I’m extremely opinionated on most issues.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

No.

That's why it gets dark so early now.

It's all in fun of course..

That's not why it get's dark. That's standard time. That's the time. I'd rather have the morning light. People have been manipulated into thinking they do so much with that last hour. They don't.

I went to Nashville last weekend for a work party. 4:45pm is too early to be dark

Pick one. One or the other, and stick with it.

Not many options here because I think you are talking about the tone change vs DST. I would take permanent DST over the time change. My preference is the reverse the changes and change in the equinoxes.

 

[82_VOL_83]

After reading OP, I think they are talking about time change vs DST.

Standard time is healthier. Our bodies and minds work best when synced with nature.

 

[InVOLuntary]

TN has passed a law keeping daylight savings time year round. Evidently that has to pass federally before it can take effect. Give me that.

 

[PKT_VOL]

Pick one. One or the other, and stick with it.

Absolutely. Sticking to one time standard is more important than which time standard is selected. The switching back and forth is crazy.

Thank you.

I have to laugh. Your hypothesis says no time vs. DST/ST.

 

[gcbvol]

I have to laugh. Your hypothesis says no time vs. DST/ST.

No, I understand we should Ideally follow the sun cycle for waking and sleeping versus our created time zones. That said, what we call standard time is closer to said cycle than DST.

I really didn't mean to laugh but hand you actually looked at the central time zone?

My idea would more closely emulate normal cycles. I mean after all, keeping get up time and come home from work time closer is the goal.

Agreed.

Yeah, there are significant issues. I believe the US timezones attempt to align with the sun, but simply cannot.
