I appreciate the world recognizing DST so I can get to work on time.  |
Actually, what you are looking forward to is a return to standard time. DST is arguably reasonable from mid-March through mid-September - it gives us later sunshine during hours when most of us are awake - but otherwise it doesn't buy us too much. I can't believe that anybody likes having their kids walk to school or wait at a bus stop while it's dark, as it has been for weeks here in New England during that time.
(I also run at 5:30 am every day, and can't wait for it to be light at least part of the time, starting Monday . . .)
