Senate Votes to make Daylight Savings Permanent

I always wondered how moving the clock back or ahead could affect the rotation rate of the earth to change sunrise and sunset.

An admittedly minor problem I have with the twice a year changes is figuring out how to change the time in my car.

all the auto change devices that don't connect to the internet are going to drive us nuts. though I don't know if I have any of those anymore.

As an old retired lady who can and who likes to sleep in each morning anyway and who appreciates it being lighter longer at the other end of the day, I'm all for establishing DST as our permanent time and no longer messing with the changing of the clocks twice a year.

I’m all for it. I hate the time change and prefer more daylight in the evening hours.

There are lots of good arguments against it, and I also read an article today about periods where this was tested before, but I’m being selfish here - I want it gone. Set it and forget it!

well, I was born on one of the darkest days of the year, on Standard Time – this will steal an hour from my life
