Around the Water Cooler

Bill Mifsud: “Yes. The whole world does it. You get an extra hour of sleep in the fall and lose an hour in the spring.”
Ruth Erickson: “No, I don’t think it’s necessary in this day and age. Some states and areas of the U.S. and various countries don’t use daylight savings time now. Let’s all use the same system.”
Richard Place: “It would be ok if my dog and cat knew how to read time.”
Nants Foley “I love Daylight Savings Time. Why follow a clock anyway? Eat when you are hungry, sleep when you are tired and do something you love so you never feel you are at work!”
Marty Richman: “Yes, we are just responding to the change between the angle of earth’s axis tilt and the sun that changes the seasons and the length of the days. We can make it easier if all parts of the continental U.S. would change without exception. Alaska, Hawaii, etc., can operate differently. Is it difficult? It’s no more difficult that changing your watch as you move across time zones and many people do that several times a week. It s becoming a 24-hour operational world; the tech support you are using is likely many time zones away in the middle of their night.”
Mary Zanger: “No. I enjoyed opening my eyes this morning to sunshine rather than blackness. Let the darkness appropriately begin in December when we have other brightness to distract us. Let Mother Nature’s clock tick-tock for us. The time for time change to stop changing is now.”
