Daylight Savings Time is Here to Stay

Doesn't exactly apply to the argument, but reminded me of this!

This is the only single intelligent thing to come out of this century. Then they ruin the idea of intelligence by putting it off until Nov 2023.

Extra light in the evening is my preferred. My day always starts in the dark and then I drive to an office (which has lights on regardless). Would rather have the extra light at night so I can spend time outside with the kid when I get home versus when I’m sitting at the office.

Very excited for this change.

I could care less what time the sun "comes up". But sunset before 5pm is ridiculous. When we lived in Iceland the sun came up around 11am and set ~2pm on the shortest day of the year and it wasn't the end of the world. But the flip side of that on the longest day of the year was awesome. I definitely prefer DST to standard time.

Well, it actually will start in Mar 2023......we just won't switch back to standard time as we would have in Nov 2023. But ya.......why not make the change effective to this year instead of next.

So how will this effect everyone's hunting? will you have more time? less time etc.?

I kinda like the thought of having more daylight in the evenings to hunt, I might actually get to hunt in the evenings now some while I work. Getting off at 4pm and it getting dark at 5:30 doesnt leave much time for me to drive to anywhere and get in the woods without blowing everything out

Dang now all the college kids won't get an extra hour to close down the bar when we switch over

I feel bad for people that live on the west side of the time zone in the northern tier states. Sun will be coming up after 930am for a large portion of the winter. 240 days a year it’ll be dark until after 7am.

It's morning........it might as well be dark. But having some daylight after dinner to do some things is way better.

Not a fan. I can't think of any positives but I can think of multiple negatives.

I will definitely have more time in the evenings. I’m excited about it. I think my wife is the most excited of anyone. Lol. She HATES it getting dark at 5:00

Better for you. I like getting my work done in the morning.

i go to work when it is dark regardless if it is January or June so i hope it stays i would rather have time in the evening to train dogs when i get dont working. Getting dark at 5 sucks balls

East coast here. I hunt, surf, or ride dirt bikes year round after work. More sunlight at the end of a winter day will be greatly appreciated.

That’s an interesting quote from Patty Murray from WA. If people want less depression, how about a) they also vote to stop all that rain on the west side, b) they actually do something about drug addiction and dependency of all types, and c) get that ****** out of the White House

And that's the problem........just like everything else in life our nation seems to be split down the middle on preferences, which is why it's so dang hard to get anything done anymore......let alone work.

 

[Ferrulewax]

Stoked for this. I honestly don't know how people that live on the east side of time zones do it, getting dark at like 4:00 in the winter is insane.

 

[Ladsontr]

More evening hunting after work

The <10% native blood in me is laughing at the silly white man who thinks he can save daylight. When winter comes start school/work at 9 instead of 7-8. But we have to complicate the shit out of everything.

AZ and HI got it right all along. Living in AK I would prefer permanent Standard time.

Regardless the House still needs to pass it- so far it’s not on the Agenda, and the Pres needs to sign it. None of which is a sure thing.

So it will need time if it’s enacted, and many computers and industry updates to the automated time change implemented
