I wish my state would follow Arizona's example and do away with meddling with the time.

I agree - it is such a bother to change the time.

When I first moved here, we did not change the time, now we do, and I don't like it.

There are worse things on this earth than daylight savings time.

I would rather have it light until 10PM than light at 430AM which is what it would be without it in the summer.

I wish thry would leave it on daylight savings time as it would save us money all year round.. and we have one hour longer in the evening.

I love DST! It's always so helpful to my Seasonal Affective Disorder to have daylight later in the afternoon. As I am a later-in-the-morning sleeper, mornings are not a problem for me, but it's so nice to be able to sit out on the porch after dinner to play 'treats' with the kitties in the sweet evening light.

I dislike DST--I find the long summer days endless. I have a reverse SAD, so I just close my shades/curtains at about the same time year-round--works for me, but I prefer the shorter days of winter.
