How about this? Let's get rid of the leap forward and keep the fall back. I know, I know, after twelve years day will be night and night will be day, but we will still have all of an extra hour of sleep once a year.
My state (WA) voted to remove it several years back. But it apparently needs congressional approval or something like that. And with all that's been happening politically the last 5 years, who knows if it will be addressed.
Agreed. And there's a big plus - kids learn better when the school day starts later.
It's only good for messing with your sleep schedule. It's all fun in games when the clock goes back an hour, you get to sleep in! But when the clock goes ahead an hour...
I was going to say ^^^THIS^^°
Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
It's time to put it to rest. We don't need it anymore.
We Never Know
No Slack
If we don't spring forward it will be sunrise around 4:45 am May 31st for example
If we don't fall back it won't be sunrise until around 8:30 am Jan 1st for example.
Which would you prefer?

The one scientists say is the actual time.

***** Daniels didn't even give the state a vote. He just did it. His name is Mitch, but that's one of the many reasons I change the M to B (another reason is "we're going to make Prozac profitable.")Well, I guess that changed 17 years ago.
What Time Zone Is Indiana?
In Indiana, USA, there are are two time zones: Central Time and Eastern Time. All counties set their clocks one hour to and from Daylight Saving Time (DST) twice a year. Indiana time zone map with local time in each county.www.timeanddate.com
I think the practice needs to die, thkugh I'd prefer it get darker earlier in the evening.

Before the advent of standard times and accurate clocks, everyone went by local time. Every thing went by the natural rhythm of daylight.
No. One though that they had a problem.
It was only with factory working and the coming of the railways that anyone discovered that there was a problem.
There is no need for DST just leave the clocks alone and let real needs decide working hours. Which need not be the same for everyone nor the same year round. I once had a job that started 11am and ended at 7pm. It worked just fine.
When I worked in Spain we had a 4 hour break in the middle of the day. But started early and worked late.
Many people work rotating shifts or permanent days or nights.
People need not and do not all keep the same hours.

Swedes are happy ...and don't complain.
So saving a hour of light is really...
capricious?

The former. I'll still be awake for more than an hour before sunrise.
We should throw out clocks altogether and bring back the sundial.

I don't really care. Just don't change it 2 times a year. It messes with many people's bio rhythm. Accidents go up every spring just after the change and stay high for a few weeks. Same with some illnesses. It repeats in autumn but is less severe.
I get up at 5 sometimes...so it's perfect.
I mean...there are the curtains, the shutters, if someone doesn't like sunlight when they're asleep.
So?
Scandinavians have it, yet they don't commit suicide...
Did you do any research before you posted this? Scandinavia's suicide rate is nearly double that of Italy and falls into the mid-range of world suicide rates (suicides per 100k). In 2019, Sweden was 14.7, Norway was 11.8, and Denmark was 10.7. By comparison, Italy was 6.7.
