News Article: daylight savings to be extended to 2 hours[views:2081][posts:15]______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 7:08pm - the_reverend ""] I didn't find an article yet... but it would be extended to 2 hours. only people bitching are parents and farms.. |
| ________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 7:21pm - Omerta ""] So wait...does that mean more sleep, or less? |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 7:45pm - the_reverend ""] it means more daylight when everyone's actually doing things. in march, it'll change 2 hours and 7am will be like 7am at the beginning of december. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 7:45pm - the_reverend ""] "more sleep" is "go to bed" ps: sleep is for the weak. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:18pm - i_am_not_me ""] As if it wasn't hard enough to adjust to a one-hour switch. |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:19pm - the_reverend ""] it will take you 2 days to adjust. damn 25 hour internal clock. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:21pm - succubus ""] heh i have no trouble adjusting to time changes i used to travel to europe weekly and did it for 6 months (flight attendant) |

| _______________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:31pm - BSV ""] this is the most fucked up thing i've ever heard. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:32pm - ArrowHead ""] Where'd you hear this? Congress is in the process of passing a bill that will extend DST by 2 MONTHS, not hours. In other words, change a month earlier and a month later, thus cutting fuel conumption by 10,000 barrels a day. |

When I was a kid (and still today, at my old house) I had/have a blanket with Bart Simpson saying "Sleeping's for wimps, man" I swear that fucking blanket brainwashed me, because I still try to stay awake as much as possible. |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:34pm - the_reverend ""] hm... I swear they said extend it by 2 hours so that it's when people would be up and active... but I could be wrong. |
| _______________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:36pm - the_reverend ""] I heard it on NPR. |
| _________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:36pm - Abbath ""] i am so confussed right now i need another beerr |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 11,2005 10:51pm - dread_104 ""] How about extending last call by two hours? Now that would be my tax dollars well at work |
