We don't observe in Arizona but since we live right on the Nevada and CA borders, we have to adjust for it. I get so confused! I never can keep it straght! :-3

I think it's dumb as dirt. Haven't these people heard of alarm clocks?!? If you want to get up an hour earlier or later, be my guest. Just leave the clocks alone!

Daylight Saving Time Yields Massive Daylight Surplus

October 25, 2006

WASHINGTON, DC—Energy Secretary Samuel W. Bodman announced Monday that the country's seven-month-long effort to conserve sunshine has resulted in the largest national daylight surplus since October 2005.

"We have built up over 200 hours of this precious, life-giving resource," said Bodman, noting that "the sun's rays are not going to last forever." "We have decided it would be most prudent not to squander this valuable daylight by distributing it to Americans, instead suggesting that they all just wake up a little earlier."

Bodman said the surplus will be stored in the Strategic Daylight Reserve—a system of opaque, sealed-off underground tanks located in Arizona—and only tapped in the case of the sun burning out or a particularly rainy afternoon.

I'd like a happy medium. I don't like when it stays bright late into the evening in the summer either.
