Hate the time change

Every year the time changes forward or back my body goes out of whack. Couldn't get the kids out of bed either, and they took the bus in deep darkness.
I wish those who control the collective clock would decide on one time and stick to it.

I'm with you. It takes me at least a couple of weeks to get used to the new time (either way) and I can't see that it makes such a great difference in my power use....instead of turning on the lights for an extra hour at night -- I am doing it for an hour earlier in the morning. No way the change makes any sense to me.

This morning on the Today Show, they were talking about it and saying how GREAT to have that extra hour of sunlight in the evenings. I am not so sure that I am in agreement. I would much rather have my kids getting to school in sunlight.

On the positive side, it serves to remind me when it's time to change the batteries in the smoke detectors!

Everybody hates the beginning of DST but loves the end when it goes back one hour.

Has anyone done any reporting on how DST changes affects business and travel? I'd be interested in finding out how other parts of the world maintain their clocks and wether international timezones are affected.
