Yeah the stupid moron who would be Governor Daniels decided we NEEDED it. Because it would bring jobs in. What a load of bull poop. All it does is give me wicked migraines because my body doesn't adjust to the time.

They are on MST all year long. So in the summer they are essentially on Pacific time and now in the winter it's like Mountain time.

I don't care about the change in the amount of daylight, I just wish we could get on one time and STAY there.

I hear you!! Just the "change" in time is what I have so much trouble with. I cannot sleep a whole night right now. I fall asleep to early and after my normal amount of sleep I am wide awake!! I know eventually I will get used to it but until then it is a drag...sigh...

I'm in Arizona. No DST here. Sun sets at the same time this week as it did last week.

At least twice a year my husband suggests we move to Arizona!

You guys are lucky there. At least you don't have the twice a year readjustments that even one little hour can make.

You confused me a bit though until I saw that you really are from Az. Your name threw me off.

We don't have sun where I live so it's even easier, even though we do observe DST.

I think there are a lot of us that feel that way. I am for leaving the time alone.I do not see any real advantage in the saving time thing. It does not save any real time.......... furthermore , getting up in the dark all the time , is depressing. Nothing like a sunrise to wake one up , its the natural way.....

I propose we let each person decide when the sun rises and sets. Preferably when I get up and go to sleep But we all know that's impossible. We should just stay on daylight saving time all year but then just change the name to standard since it would be standard....hur hur.
