Was trying to explain to a old Indian how we change the clocks back so we have more light in the summer to fish and he told me " Only a white man would cut off a piece of blanket and sew it on the bottom and think he has a longer blanket ". Those old guys were smart.
YEP, sounds bout right to me.

I think it needs to go! being mostly a farming thing to give men the extra hour of daylight to tend to their crops and war time thing..What do you think?

Absolutely ridiculous. Years ago, one California legislator was against eliminating the time change because, "The crops are used to it." Seriously, if you work outside and need the light, you adjust your working hours. If you work indoors, you can always adjust your work hours to meet your employees or customer's needs. One of my biggest frustrations when I flew airplanes was trying to figure out which areas had daylight savings times and which ones didn't.

Not so much a war time thing, gave farmers an extra hour, throw the questions to the true farmers. See what response is. I grew up many years ago, have lived in Alaska since 85’. We. Don’t need more sun, but I’m so used to being on same page as u in the lower 48.
