[Lhalo]

Yes please!

I am more concerned about changing Leap Year extras day.

They should give the extra day in Summer months like July or August, instead of February when the weather sucks and kids have school

whoa, never even thought of that. what a great idea!

[Vegas Halo Fan]

I would love to see it go away. Just set the clock somewhere and leave it.

[Redondo]

Here in Arizona we never change our clocks. Hawaii is the only other state that doesn't.

 

It's great. Except that my wife works across the river in Laughlin, Nevada so half the year she goes to work an hour later and the other half the same time.

[Vegas Halo Fan]

I'm sure that we would do whatever California does. Much of our tourism is from California, and I'm sure that is why we're the only non-coastal state in the Pacific Time Zone.

Ditch it?   I'd rather they go on it year round. That would put us an hour closer to EST.

the more i've thought about this, the less possible it would be to do. Feb 29 is internationally recognized, tying in birthdates and passport info, so there would be some issues with eliminating it. also, what if other countries choose to keep using it?

 

but you're right, i'd rather have the extra day in summer.

Call me a radical but I'd rather do what California's doing than what Utah and Arizona are doing.

Your a teacher in California. They mandate the number of school days per year. So effectively, aren't you getting the extra day in summer?

Yeah.  If you somehow switched the date to a summer date it will just mean school would end a day on the calendar later.  Summer would be the same length either way.

F that! Daylight Savings Time is the best time. Get rid of standard time.

When I was a kid nothing was better than when my dad and I would play catch after dinner in the summer.

Saving... saving!  Not savings!

 

I saw a proposal to split the country into two timezones, I am a fan of that one too.  Just a west and east one hour apart.

I would think the birthday issue would not be a factor since it is already accounted for 3 out of 4 years.

[Glen]

I don't care which one they keep as long as they ditch the time change twice a year. Pick one or the other and stick with it year-round.

[Mark68]

Time changes are archaic and unneccessary. Preferably, I'd like to have DST all year long, but just pick one and stick to it.

[Ray McKigney]

What Chu talkin 'bout?

I love winter when the sun goes down early and rises late.

As its pitch black at 6p, I just wanted to follow up to see if you made it happen @Tank?

You simply need to schedule a lunch with high members of Congress.

[CaliAngel]

Almost 8 years later and California still hasn't made any progress on this undoubtedly complicated and controversial issue? 
 

I, for one, am shocked.

Daylight saving is competing with the Angels playoff drought.

i have a strong moral opposition to being in the same room with brazen thieves.
