It speaks volumes that we find it easier to redefine time than to go to bed and wake to earlier.
May a better idea would be winter time only in Northen Europe and symmer time only when you get further south.
I'm surprised it's unmentioned here. My recollection was that a kid got hit by a bus in the morning, and that ended that.
Sounds awesome, if you ask me. As a kid, I didn't care in the slightest what the world was like in the morning, but getting home from school in the dark made for pretty tiresome winters.
I think the children were used as an excuse to push something the legislators wanted yet again.
I do most of my sports outside, in the summer while it's still light, DST is a great! It's just wonderful to windsurf or kitesurfing till 22:30 in May, June and July.
Getting rid of DST means a lot let sporting hours for me...
