Exactly. When I'm employed I really don't care because I'm half dead at 7 am anyway. An hour of daylight then is useless because I'm staggering around with my eyes closed to the shower. When it's light in the evening I can sit on the porch and watch the world go by or go for a walk or even sit inside on the computer typing without turning on the lights.

they have already done studies that disprove any energy savings by changing the time. like you said PG if it isnt used in the evening, it will be used in the morning. I read something on that a year or so back, and it showed all the numbers, and basically threw that theory out the window.

Light SCHMIGHT to me its all about losing or gaining SLEEP!!!!
That is a luxury that people with chonic pain, like me, seldom have!
So, that is one main reason I wish they would leave the time changes alone!
