The second strong case for staying in Daylight Saving Time year round is that we can save lives. A recent study shows the switching of clocks in the spring causes a 25% jump in heart attacks in the few days following the switch, confirming earlier research that point out the shift in time can disrupt the quality of sleep and biological rhythms.

Click and Clack are always an inspiration.
I would prefer that we never do the leap forward and just stay on regular time year around.
One or the other, I don't care. Just quit messing with us.
I don't like trying to leave for the hospital before 7:30 in the dark as the kids around here seem to have zero car sense. If it wasn't for that I probably would be cool either way.
I do wish they would stop messing with us. I don't think things will change as their are too many special interest groups that have the bucks to keep the status quo. The chances of it being done away with are like getting rid of the IRS--zero.
I'm afraid you're right. Too bad we don't have a vote.
I'm with you. All this back and forth with the clocks is ridiculous.
