(62,416 posts)we could put an extra hour of nightdark time in a day to compensate for the extra daylight time.
also, we could maybe move some of that daylight time to winter when we could really use it.
thinking sciencely is easy.

(14,532 posts)why My bedroom spins whille I am trying to sleep. I really notice it after a few too many margaritas. All this time, I thought it was the liquor. Now I know the liquor just makes me more in tune with how the Earth rotates. The only solution is to consume my adult beverages in the AM, so I will not notice the faster spinning.

(950 posts)My solution for daylight saving time. This fall when we are suppose to set our clocks back, we change them a 1/2 hour and then we never change them again, a simple compromise solution to a problem that never needed fixing.
From summer to winter the daylight and darkness changes over 5 hours, what the hell good does and hour clock change do anyway?

Getting all the businesses in the US to agree to shift summer hours simultaneously would be impossible, so instead, you change the numbers.
Alternatively, I recall Carter trying year-round DST but parents complained about their children waiting for school busses in the dark.
