I'd like to have it all the time and do away with regular time.  Or at least pick a happy medium and stick to it.  I hate time changes no matter which way they are going.

I like it light at later hours and darker in the morning, but I'm not a morning person, so...
I hate DLS because I lose an hour, but love it because it's light longer. The opposite is true for when it ends. Darkness at 5 PM is just depressing.

It doesn't make sense to change it back an hour in the fall, when it's already getting darker by itself, then daylight savings time comes and makes it darker an hour earlier.

Darkness at 5 PM is just depressing. awesome because it's nice and dark but you're still awake!

jmdblazer, Daylight Saving Time happens in the summer, not winter. Correct actual real time happens in winter.
That was a joke.

Since melatonin and your whatever gland makes you start getting tired right about when it gets dark, I say the later the lighter the better.

So why do I regularly not get tired until 2 or 3 AM?
That was a joke.

I hate Daylight Savings Time. It completely threw me off track yesterday and I'm still trying to adjust to it. :\
