I don't mind it getting dark early as much as it being dark when I need to wake up like it's been the past few weeks. At least this will give us a break until we approach the winter solstice.

I actually won't mind the earlier sunsets...solar glare traffic delays have been a bit of a pain lately.

No kidding, I was thinking about the Y2K comparison all week. Last Sunday we were really confused what was going on as many of our electronic devices auto adjusted while many didn't.

I am the opposite. I would rather see sunlight when I get out of work rather than first thing in the morning.

Yup I like to do stuff after work/school. The dark really cuts down on that.

Ah good. The clock in my car will be correct again.
Hehe, know the feeling. Seems like every time change I have to dig out the manual.
Same here, I'd be happy if they just left the time the way it is now and never switched it back...

I'd rather it be like northern alaska, dark 21 hours a day. So we're all miserable. That would be best.

I'd rather have the daylight in the morning this time of year. It is still dark now when the neighborhood kids are waiting for the school bus. To me that is dangerous because there are no street lights out here.

Not true for most municipalities. I recall we always wanted to see this happen when I was involved with the Boston club scene by the city would not allow it. I am sure every town/city is different, but I suspect most limit the time of closing based on the time that the establishment opened.

No difference in the long run leaving the bar at 4am or 5am.
Less daylight = colder temps = better skiing = less miserable. :beer:
