Does it do you any good? Is it of any use? Does it help the way you live in any way?
I don't like it. Makes no sense to me. It's kind of like cutting one end off a blanket and sewing that end to the other end, just to make the blanket longer.

Well, I like it when I get the extra hour but dislike it when I lose the hour, specially when sleep is involved because I can't change my sleeping habits from one day to the next. I also usually either get it backwards or forget completely or are not even aware it's time for it and I'm late at work. By the way, when is it?! I'm going to have to ask that question on the forum.

In Arizona, we don't participate in Daylight Savings. I prefer it this way. It makes doing business with the East Coast a bit of a pain the summer when we're the same time as Pacific, and the times of cable shows change, but I'm saved the bother of having to deal with clocks and scheduling.
Time is a truly arbitrary thing, just as you described in your blanket analogy. I hope eventually it's done away with.

No, I don't like it, and this year it will be worse as it is being advanced to the 11th. A lot of electricals are programed for the original date, and oh boy, will that be a mess. Makes no sense to me either. Arizona and Hawaii don't have it, so why do the rest of us? best wishes

I like it! It makes you get off work an hour earlier & It doesn't get dark outside untill about 9pm. Of course, you also have to get up an hour earlier & you go to work in the dark! But I do like it better!

I wish they would just leave it alone. In the grand scheme of things, it's unnecessary, and outdated. Parts of Arizona do not even observe it anymore.
