Oddly enough, the USA uses DST and milk always seems available in the store...
I completely agree that people are silly for thinking that the sun stays up an hour longer... or that the curtains fade faster because the sun shines "longer on them"... complete idiocy.
And no, I'm an engineer, not a farmer... can't stand to get up too early in the morning (I'm a night owl  ).

Don't get me wrong. You could be partly right.
I don't know what happens in NSW as to milk timetable regulations, but Victoria milks at the same time (Non DST)
The Dairy workers probably like it too as they get to knock off an hour earlier (even though they have to start an hour earlier)

But in Summer that is good
