The government says it helps save energy. What do you think? Or does it really affect you at all?

It's deception by our beloved govt. so they can all get in an extra hour on the golf course and we're gullible enough to believe it. I don't and it will disrupt my sleep and the baby's sleep significantly while I try to transition my grandbaby to the time change. I'm too dignified to tell how I really feel about it, but you can guess.

I don't like daylight savings time much. I want the time to stay the same. I think we use the same amount of energy either way. I do feel sorry for the kiddies who have to get up at the crack of dawn to catch a school bus though.

A week really doesn't make a difference to me. I like daylight savings time and when it ends next week, it'll be hard for me to get anything done before dark. I'll just have to adjust next week, instead of this week.

If it saves on energy, let's see what it does to our utility bills in the next six months. I think it's a ruse.
One thing I do know for sure, it does play havoc with the body's circadian rhythms. I hate the change and never really get accustomed to it.

I wish they'd just leave it at Daylight Savings Time.

I live in Arizona. No daylight saving time.

I dont think it saves any at our house. We still have to heat the house and have the lights on at all hours because my husband and I work opposite shifts. So 1 week more or less wont affect us much.

It doesn't matter one way or the other to me. We still get up at 7:00 am and go to bed at 10:00pm

It's the craziest idea I've heard of. How can you save time? It should be called, 'set clock'. Man is so full of himself.
