What do you think of daylight savings time?
Personally, I’d like to make it permanent. I like the extra hour of sleep I got this weekend, but prefer having extra light at the end of the day.

Daylight saving time: 19 states seek to make DST year-round
If you’re tired of changing your clocks twice a year, there could be some hope on the horizon. But a change to federal law would be required.
