I thoroughly agree, Jay. I think we should shack up with Arizona and do away with what Patrick calls Daylight Silly Time.
Or "Daylight Saving Death" as some call it, referring to the deaths caused each year by the switch.
And I love it when folks say it saves electricity, ignoring studies showing that what is saved in having lights on less is more than made up for by increased use of air conditioners.
Actually I've no problem with Silly Time if we'd just stick with it. Real Time or Silly Time: Just pick one and stay with it. No more switching back and forth.
