This piece goes into the costs of changing the date of Daylight Savings. The cost to businesses was never never factored into the congressional equation.
DLS is BS. I work in IT and it's a real pain in the butt. It wastes energy. Air conditioners in the summer must run an hour extra. I'd like to know where the money behind this is coming from. The golf course lobby perhaps?
DO we really need day light savings time? they say it saves on energy? well we have sun at 6:30am and then we have night at 4:30pm. We are spending the same on energy why not have the sun out longer in the day so we use less energy at night and go for 1/2 hour to hour with little or no morning lite? This cost companies and goverment millions a year. People that are into global warming should be all over this......
Stop the time change madness! Ridiculous vestige of bygone eras.

In NH it's good because it's not pitch black at 5:15 PM anymore, and it eventually works that you have long days in the summer.
