Want to save energy and fight global warming?

It's simple, stupid, eliminate Daylight Savings Time. The energy saved by reduced lighting needs is more than offset by increased heating and cooling needs. By eliminating DST, the potential savings world-wide is in the billions of dollars.

In addition, we'd no longer have the weeks of grogginess and its associated problems from having to shift our sleep schedule an hour forward or backward.

I'm all for it. Let's never use DST again!

I like DST. It gives me a standard excuse for whenever I'm late. "What? The wedding is over? I thought DST started today."
"Huh? I was scheduled to work yesterday? I thought it was DST."
