We need a way to let the will of the public be known to legislators. Then they will end it!

Cost of lost productivity due to the time change generally outweighs the gains from utility savings. As a society, we do not regulate our behaviors according to the sun but according to the clock. Daylight savings time is an artificial concept that has no impact on how many hours a day the sun is actually in the sky. Utility savings are a phantom.

In summer it is light outside until 9pm which is totally unnecessary and hard for young kids and people who work very early. It takes people at least a month to start feeling normal after the change but studies show we never totally adjust and it disrupts our circadian rhythm. Why should we have to suffer twice a year, once from waking too early and once from feeling like we're working late, and suffer interrupted sleep schedules due to waking against sun cycles during summer? There is no escaping d.s.t. either because its manditory, you MUST feel bad. You must wake early.

In the past people did not work by the clock they work by the day light. If 8 pm is not long enough day light for you and it goes longer on regular time then you have a problem plus if it is suppose to save energy with day light savings you are not you are hotter when you get in later so you move the airconditiong down to cool off. Regular time you would be in the house earlier and already cool down You have to turn on your lights more in the morning so you are not saving there either

Time change just messes up your sleeping habits and etc. children safety is at stake when the time changes when riding a school bus walking to school etc.

I totally disagree! Save daylight savings time! That extra hour of daylight in the summer is PRICELESS, when you work inside all day long. Do NOT get rid of it.
