Back in the 70s energy shortage they stayed at DST for a couple years.
Frankly I HATE winter and dark at 5 pm.


And are unable to go to bed earlier, and get up when it's light.

I wish we would stay at DST forever


Of course, EITHER "DST forever" or "DST never" would be much
preferable to the current situation. The amount of daylight is
determined by the heath's rotation and axial tilt, not governments and
stupid mind games.


But governments and businesses determine time.


That may be the worst bull**** ever. They may determine standards for
MEASURING time. That's a long way from determining time.

By your "logic" we
should get rid of time zones altogether and just go bay local solar
time; not a good idea.

Stop whining and set the clocks Saturday night.
