set your clocks back an hour?

Most of mine stay on "normal" time. I refuse to comply!

The one on the phone and on the computer change automatically. I consider them traitors.

I hate the arrangement myself, but I am a conformist by nature, ashamed to say. I admire that you choose to paddle against the current.

You could do what the British military did in the Falklands War.

They were much concerned about errors due to the time differences between the SW Atlantic, and London, so they just left the operational time at GMT/Zulu/UTC. So, yes, the sun came up at 0230, etc., but but no errors in conversion.

BTW, used to listen to the Canadian time signal, and being the multicultural place it is, they broadcast it in both English and French. So you would hear the announcement "Le Temp Zulu c'est...". Just slayed me.

I am anti-DST but one has to conform to work with others

notably all the dang doctors... Glad we're back to standard time which is where we should stay. That's my 2¢.

One clock stays on CST year round

It's too hard to change
All but a few manual timepieces change automatically

Most of mine change automatically. Now the coffee pot gets made sure it’s changed. I need that anti murder juice right on time!

we have SO FAR not been bothered by such rubbish. But there's always SOMEONE who thinks "it'd be a good idea". I always figured if you wanted more daylight in the summer, get up earlier. All this jumping around on the clock is not worth bothering with. Especially in these days of abundant artificial light sources for the dark part of the year.
