Just a reminder to everyone, this Sunday (March 10th) at 2 am we spring our clocks ahead for spring! For those of us who still have clocks we didn't set back :ahem: they'll be correct soon! :P

I'll be at the coast all weekend (Lincoln City, OR) so I'll lose an hour of vacation lol...

My clock is already there...haven't changed it from last year.
I don't buy into this "time changing" [BLEEP]...I just leave my clocks the same all the time.

I like the earlier time--if ya'all want them to leave it alone, they should leave it so there is more light at night---this is what this is all about after all...so people have more time to "do things outside" in the daylight of the evenings, right???

You can jack with the clocks all you want to still does not change the amount of light or darkness one bit.

I like being able to be out side til 8:30 or 9 PM while there is still light out,, I don't mind driving to work in the dark, Driving HOME from work in the dark I don't like, The boys can't play out side, I don't like to run errands after work in the dark,, I wish they would just leave it alone and keep it light out as long as possible at night.

Too bad if you change it at night it makes no difference, it will be less light in the morning.
So now it is starting to get light early, before they kept backing it off, it used to be The first week in April several years ago and then they kept putting it back. I like the morning, I love when it is light at 6 am.
