Here's hoping Congress goes through with that bill proposal and makes this the last time we have to do this. I am looking forward to being able to walk the dog in the daylight after work, though.

I'd rather gain an hour of sleep.

Go to bed an hour earlier if you're internal clock is not hard wired.

With all the kerfuffle that goes with the semi-annual time changes, it makes me wonder how some folks deal with east-west travel and crossing time zones.

If you don't set an alarm and simply wake up, did you really "lose" an hour of sleep?

I wish they'd pick one damned time and stick with it, but it matters less now that I don't keep a schedule any more.

Changing the time has never been a problem for me. Don't see it making a difference whether they stick with DST or not.
I bet they don't pass any legislation to stop changing the time and get it to the Presidents desk for him to sign this year either.

Going to ignore the time change again.

It’s loads of fun for us here in Arizona, since meeting times change with the other time zones…but we’re always in MST. I’m fine with not changing — I wish everyone else was static also.

I don't care which way we change, just pick one and stay with it. The changing twice a year is bullshit.

I went to bed early and slept through the early start alarm this morning. To the positive I woke up 45 minutes late which is 15 minutes early. Hmmm?? This year I expect that there will be more than the usual number of rear end collisions on the highway that happen during the week of DST. I am quite pessimistic about the commute.
