I HATE the concept of DST, I especially hate all these new changes.  How is my stupid auto-DST VCR clock supposed to work now??  There are other embedded devices that are similar.

I do appreciate the new change though.  I have an hour of daylight when I get home from work until the end of DST, where otherwise I get home in complete darkness.  I wish they would just keep the DST time year round now.

But, my greatest wish would be that we all work on GMT and just deal with it.  It's so great in China, you never have to change your clock when you travel, and you don't have to worry about what time is it here or there.

Stargate?  What is this stargate??  Oh!  Who cares?  It's on during Futurama. :-D

BTW one of my first Amiga experiences was a guy with a genlock recreating MST3K.  Before he could afford a genlock, he just taped paper cutouts to a TV and pointed a camera at it!  Those weird Minn'sotans!!! :crazy:

If it's meant to supress us, it sure has the opposite effect!  I am certainly more active during DST, and so is everyone else I know.

Well.... on the other hand, it does supress my Amiga software development!
