I blame Congress. There have been bills about it that go nowhere. They cant even pass a no brainer bill like that one anymore. What would it take, an hour on the floor?

I like the daylight savings time as do most people. Its going back that sucks.

I'm sick of my clocks being wrong half the year.... now that is what you call lazy.

I'd rather have more daylight in the evening.

Same here. Summer and winter both.
I changed seven clocks -- three tick-tocks and two digital and two battery powered analogs. Plus the programmable thermostat. Haven't got to the garage and the cars yet. I'm glad the phones and computers change themselves. But if Putin hacks the Internet they may change themselves to Moscow time.

Keeps you mentally sharp, making the adjustment. We should all do it. ;)

I am still finding clocks that need to get changed. Takes me a few weeks to get back in sync.

Do I have to take back the bad things I said about congress now? LOL

Hopefully congress also passes it. I'd turn it ahead another hour while they are at it. 8-)
