I like the longer days, but I like the extra hour of sleep we get in the "fall back".

I like them both for different reasons.  Extra hour of sleep in the fall and longer days in the summer.

It's only standard time now for what, about 3 months.  Why don't they just leave it Savings time all year.  It doesn't makes sense to me.

I hate DST.  An extra hour of sunlight is not a good thing in Texas, especially July through September.

This will be the first time we "Spring Forward"  There has been a constant fight about Eastern or Central time here.  I myself perfer Eastern.  Im a busy man in the summer and I enjoy the extra hour of light.  Sometimes I wish I lived in Finland.  While there in the summer time....the sun never actually ever set.  Now thats my kind of Light....lol

So Yes Im ready bring it on....I would give up an extra hour of sleep just to have more light at the end of the day.

The extra hour of sleep is the BEST, but on the other hand the spring forward means the lighter nights and longer days and the warm weather is on it's way, so I guess I prefur the longer days to the extra hour in bed! 8)

Without question the later the better for night....dusk at 4:30 blows!!!!

Bring on the 9:00- 9:30pm  Northwest sunset ...oh yeah! O0

Dudes... one of the best memories from my travel is stumbling drunk out of the closing English pubs at 11:00 pm with the last bit of sun light leaving on the horizon!!!!

Very cool!!!!! O0

I enjoy the extra hour of light way more! I love nothing more than to come home from work, change clothes and go water my lawn while having a cold one!
