    I dont think it makes the day seem shorter.....It doesnt get dark until an hour later, and its a Sunday, so unless you have to work, you dont really lose an hour of sleep becuase you can just sleep in an extra hour :)

    Exactly. I value the amount of daylight I get to enjoy after work. When we "gain" an hour, it gets dark sooner; rather depressing really.

    When I had my rolla decked out, I hated the spring DST cuz more daylight meant people couldnt see my underbody neons and four TV screens in my car (yea, the rolla was really decked out)....

    i like this day coz of the usual reason, to get more daylight... i dont really think about losing an hour of sleep... i still wake up the same time and sleep the same time not noticing i lost an hour...

    btw, turismodreamin, i like the quote on ur sig... this is the first time i actually read it...

    i like this time change because my body never really adjust to the fall back part of the time change so i end up going to sleep around 1-2 aclock in morning but now my body still thinks its 1-2 but its really 12-1 so i get an extra hour of sleep....but then again im in college so i never have enough sleep.

    Amen to that brotha. 40 hours of work + 15 credit hours. If it weren't for my BS "intro to computer" online class I would go crazy. Lol.

    Yeah, I remember those days....working 2-3 jobs at a time, and I was taking 18-21 credits a semester.
