Daylight Savings Time starts Sunday morning.

lol

Not in Europe though - we have to wait another 2 weeks!

Time change is worthless shit. Half the Country does it, half don't. It's just a Government control thing.

Yes!!!

I hate standard time!

Hate it when it gets dark at 4-5pm

Just keep it on daylight savings time!

Makes no damn sense!

That must be about how long it takes for daylight to get from here to there.

High noon should stay high.
Early to bed, early to rise...

It’s always been for the safety of the kids riding the school busses in the dark mornings.

Yep, our idiot Government wants to keep us eventually on DST. Can't wait until December when the sun rises after 9am every morning.

Should be on standard time.

Daylight saving time—the practice of moving the clock forward one hour—has many critics. Losing an hour of sleep only to wake up to darkness? No thanks. But is Benjamin Franklin to blame for this “invention”?

Daylight saving time is one thing that Franklin did not invent. He merely suggested Parisians change their sleep schedules to save money on candles and lamp oil.

The common misconception comes from a satirical essay he wrote in the spring of 1784 that was published in the Journal de Paris. In the essay, titled “An Economical Project,” he writes of the thrifty benefits of daylight versus artificial light. He describes how—when woken by a loud noise at 6 a.m.—he noticed that the sun had already risen.

Daylight saving time is the practice of adjusting the clocks to have more daylight in the evenings. The idea was first suggested by Benjamin Franklin in a 1784 essay, but he did not propose it seriously1,2,3. The first true proponent of daylight saving time was William Willett, an English builder who published The Waste of Daylight in 19073,4. Germany was the first country to adopt daylight saving time in 1916, during World War I, to conserve fuel2,4. The United States followed in 1918, but abolished it after the war2. It was reinstated by Franklin Roosevelt in 1942 as "war time" and lasted until 19452,5. Daylight saving time became standard in the US in 1966 with the Uniform Time Act5.

Spring ahead for the new year

In this reality it's just Saving...Daylight Saving(check it out in Cliff's Notes)

Oh now I will have to remember my clocks are on time again. I never changed them last time.

Wow

Which sucks. NV should be on MST. Better yet the World should be on UT not UTC. We shouldn’t have to change clocks.

Hopefully they didn’t store the daylight savings at the Silicon Valley Bank or we’re screwed.

I no clock watcher.

As Homer would say.......doh.....start schools an hour later.

I'm so happy and glad that I live in a state that never changes the clock! No losing an hour of sleep here!

nice for you!

Remember folks, you Fall Forward, and then you Spring Back.

Thanks! I grew up living in a state where DST is observed. After being here for 6 years, I ended up going back to that state.

It was so hard on me for the 2 years I stayed there
to readjust myself dealing with DST. I couldn't take it. I had to come back here where my body didn't have to endure that torture. Once you're acclimated to no time change it's not easy to undo that.

Stupid as fuck as is many other things

Glad I live in the ONLY sane state in our nation, AZ. We don't change our clocks for shit!
