I hate to see it get dark so much earlier.
Whether or not one is in favor of DST depends on their lifestyle, really.

Although I'm a "morning person" I'd much rather have it lighter later in the evening. That was especially true when I was working, it allowed me to get more things done outside after work. Now that I'm retired (not Retired Now) that's not so important but more a personal preference.

Hibernation time. Soon it will be "dark" by 4:00 PM. But at least some kids will have a little extra light at the school bus stop in the morning. Until the night of next March 10/11. Then sanity will return and we can all awaken again.

Good! I was fine with the change until some moron decided to extend it into November, why couldn't they leave it as it was.
