In reply to the discussion: Daylight Saving Time Is Terrible: Here's a Simple Plan to Fix It (DST ends Sun, Nov 3) [View all]ChisolmTrailDem
(9,463 posts)I don't like it getting dark before supper time in the winter.
A plan as described in the Atlantic article would seem to me to be a logical solution that would serve nearly everyone. Just off the top of my head, the plan would average out with us having 1/2 hour less daylight in the summer and 1/2 hour more daylight in the winter. Please feel free to correct me...anyone.
Most TV schedule times are delivered either 8pmET/9pmCT which could be changed to 8pmET/7pmWT. Also, for live events like sports, entertainment/concerts, and breaking news, you wouldn't have such an event, like an NFL game, taking place at 1pmET/10amPT. It would be 1pmET/12pmWT.
There would be more pros than cons, except if you hate to give up a half-hour in the summer.
