Friday thoughts

Well, it's Friday, and that's good. The bad news is we already go on DST this weekend, losing an hour of needed sleep. This is getting rather ridiculous. We no longer have a "need" for it. It's been posted today (and I said this last year) that there is no energy savings here. You wake up in the dark (and cold at this time of year), so heaters are going. When it gets warm, we'll use air conditioners longer, thus using more energy.

People may want to justify DST as saving energy because they like that extra hour of daylight. Me, I'm a night person and love it. I never adjust to the DST while losing an hour of sleep. It's a joy when we go back to EST.
