    Well I am jealous. I absolutely *hate* the whole changing of the clocks twice a year. It serves no real purpose and just screws up my internal clock. :laugh:

    I usually sleep to celebrate that extra hour.
    So I'll be up as late as usual.... or actually I might even go to bed early because I'm extremely tired right now.

    Arizona rocks. I like how they just say, "were not participating in that bullsh*t". And that's the end of that. Lol.

    Oh no! BC doesn't? I have a couple of people up there that I am helping at work and I love that I don't have to say 4:00 here but 5:00 your time! CRAP! I'm in Oregon and I definitely celebrate by sleep.

    A couple of years ago we were out and about at that time and the car's clock went from 1:59 am to 1:00 am it was pretty cool to see!

    Australian here and I LOVE daylight savings. It means that I can do things outdoors in the evening after work. And it's not daylight at 5am so I am not waking up way too early either.

    I don't like the fall/winter in Oregon. It is not fun for it to be pitch black by 6PM. I like having it be light out until 8PM.

    I wonder what would happen if we all refused to participate. The time *can't* change if no one changes their clocks. :laugh:

    Well your seasons are backwards anyway! :laugh:

    With the advent of electricity, "daylight hours" are irrelevant unless you are outside, and it is TOO COLD in the fall and winter to be outside where I am! :tongue:

    You need to move to Creston. They don't do daylight savings. The highway dept has to keep moving the time change sign. It's pretty funny.
