• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Daylight Saving Time: For It or Against It?

This gets brought up every year and every year it dies without ceremony.. with that said we need to keep DST permanently so it doesn't get dark at 4pm in the winter. Alot more production gets done

Feel like it’s gaining some steam over the years. Change comes slow, see marijuana.

kind of reminds me of the “getting rid of the penny” talk that comes around every so often
 
DST makes the evenings longer. Lots of people get them mixed up.
DST is what we are in now. It gets dark later in the evening. When we are not on DST it gets darker earlier (close to 5pm at the start).

If this bill passes, we will have 2 more time changes - fall of 2022 and spring of 2023.
