    I would like to take this opportunity to express my hatred and disgust for daylight saving time.

    Because you lose an hour of sleep or the whole deal?

    I love it. More time to get things done outside after work.

    Depends on where you work. It usually means I work longer as we are gearing up for another planting season on the farm. Always a lot of things to do. I love it too though and hate the time change in late fall !!

    I love setting them ahead. I just hate setting them back. It's dark here just after 4 PM in the winter. That is just depressing.

    I hate when it goes back in the fall during deer season. Get in a pattern and used to waking up at a certain time, and then a wrench gets thrown in an your callig asleep an hour later and getting up an hour earlier.

    Usually a few who forget as well and end up missing their morning hunt or getting to the stand late.

    This screws up my afternoon hunts too. I get off at 2:30 (well, supposed to anyways) get home by 3:30/4:00. In a stand by 4:45-5:00. When time changes, I'm done hunting afternoons during the weekdays. That's back to only 2 possible days a week to hunt.

    Went running 15K this morning in the dark. It was dark when I finished, dark when I left the gym, dark when I got to work and it is now 7:00 AM and just getting light. More time to fish after work though... if only I had the time to go.
