Accident Prone Posts: 22277 Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR	I used to love it without reservation until I had kids in school. Oh, and when they backed it up a month--it used to change in April so the mornings weren't so dark. Now I have to get up super early to get them ready for school and it kicks my butt, and they don't want to go to bed at night then are super cranky and difficult in the mornings. This will go on for 2-3 weeks. I do like extra daylight in the evenings. I'm not a morning person at all and don't really wake up until lunch time even tho I'm up walking around accomplishing things (sort of). The longer the daylight is on the end, the more I get done.

Only time for me to ride is after work and without lights it made for rushed evenings. I like being outside and having it light until later. Who wants to sit inside all year long?

Elite Veteran Posts: 1079	I Love it. Bring on Long summer nights where the sun doesn't go down until 10pm. Heck yes. I've never understood people's major difficulty with it? But I dont have kids, so maybe that's it. Yes there are the same # of hours in the day, but now the workday starts an hour earlier so we got more daylight hours after work. What's not to love?

Toastest with the Mostest Posts: 5712 Location: That part of Texas	I wish it would stay on this time (with more afternoon/evening hours in the light) all year round. They started making the change in the Fall occur after Halloween because statistics showed that less kids got killed out trick-or-treating because they had more daylight. I wonder how much safer it might be having it this way year round. I love having the extra time to do horse stuff and other sports after getting off of work at 5 p.m. in the summer.

Ditto, daylight in the evening hours means more time to do get stuff done after work. Keep it like it is now!
