Poll question: How would you like to see Daylight Savings Time handled?
Personally, I'd keep as is. Because I often go out on summer evenings - plus, making DST longer would seem strange to me in the late fall.

2. Skip the "spring ahead"
and just do the "fall back" so I gain an hour of sleep. In fact, we could do this every day & call it time travel! Who wants to relive their childhood?

3. Get rid of it all together.
We don't need it anymore.

5. I think we should
set our clocks back 30 minutes in the fall and then end DST. I know this might screw time up for the rest of the world. But---- I don't care!:evilgrin:

6. I've got THE solution
Every day of the year, ST in the morning (say, midnight to noon) and DST the rest of the day. Everybody's happy! :P

7. Get rid of Standard Time
I'd put up with waking up in the dark at 8 if I could get off work and still have a couple hours of sunlight left.
