I'm a fence sitter nowadays, it was good while I was working and life was ruled by the clock. Now that I've retired it doesn't bother me either way, just get up when I'm ready and go to bed ditto Ain't retirement wonderful.
I like daylight savings as well, because it gives me time to get the kids in bed and still setup in the daylight. It is a pain when it's not dark until 9:30pm and gets light at 4am though
I didn't notice it was 2 years old until after I read this. Cute
It is nice to get a bit of sun light by the time you get home from work. Have a meal outside, Go running while its light, Do a big of the garden. So i am for it. I don't think it would disturb my astronomy to much.
I'm a fence sitter. I did hate it, and might yet this summer, but so far I haven't minded it.
Yes it means I get less astronomy time out in the observatory, but it means I can easily go for a 1-2 hour bike ride after work, then have dinner, then go out to the observatory.
It helps that I run my gear automated, so leave it going while I sleep. Without that, I think my astronomy would be dramatically cut.
In principal I don't agree with it - if there's any time I'd like daylight saving it's during winter when I don't see the sun for work. And why bother messing with timezones, just live with how it is.
I guess as it turns out, I don't care either way - I take advantage of both alternatives.
In the referendum we will be having in another year or so, I still expect to be voting against it.
Whats an extra hour?? It doesnt really change much, just means i can get home after work and mow the lawn in daylight through summer......i can also have dinner and go walking afterwards......
Its not a real big deal....
i hate it when it takes and hr away and for the first day i love it when it gives me one more hour of sleep!!!...but the weird thing is it doesnt really make the day longer for me or wats ever??:S
