Time Change

Post by stuffradio »

We're having the time change again in just over 3 weeks. Do you look forward to the time changes or do you want it to stay the same all year round? I look more forward to the time change in March because it means that sun set is almost at 7PM for that time change.

Let's leave it on the current time. Long summer nights. Brighter winter evenings. No more changes.

Winter has always felt like the sun should set early Houndbone but if you think about it in far north were sunlight disappears from early November until sometime in January no leaving the clocks the same will save them from complete darkness same in summer when it's also quite light 24/7.
As for southwest B.C. usually by 4p.m. l'm ready to hibernate by that time. :shifty:

I'd rather remain on standard time year-round.

l wouldn't mind that, if we stayed on daylight savings that old debate comes up about kids going to school in the morning in the dark in winter.
I find PST is just more accurate for sunrise and sunset in the winter in SW B.C.

The BC government is so stupid. They are so American focused that they think it's impossible to be a different time than Washington State.

News FLASH: The Yukon is much, much more dependent on BC for business and trade than BC is on Washington, and they did away with the time change.

No time change in Arizona. So I just stayed on Arizona time when I got back home so that I was ready for this time change. Went down to Death Valley, which is, of course, the driest place and the lowest place in North America.
