Daylight Savings Nazis

My friends Mike and Paul seem to have a problem with Daylight Savings Time. Is it really necessary to get up in arms over an arbitrary change in what's already an arbitrary system of time keeping in the first place? Isn't there something better to get upset about? I personally look forward to DST every year and wish we'd just stay on it year round. In fact, the US should just unilaterally change to two time zones and set them to whatever time we happen to want it to get dark on average. There's no sense in there being daylight before 9am I say! Let's stop the insanity of morning daylight! It should start getting dark about 10pm this time of year! Start the petition! Call out the troops! Beat down the cow farmers! Rar!

I agree FULLY. It's nice to be able to get off work, cut your grass AND STILL have time for a beer before it's completely dark outside.

oh, i don't mind the "extra hour of daylight", i just don't like having to change every 6 months. Staying on DST and keeping with that would be fine with me.
