I hate this changing of time! Totally pointless!! -.-"
Not to mention that we'll loose one hour of sleep time in the spring -.-"
Who needs this anyways? Russians are the only smart ppl in this respect. They said: fuck it! We don't need it...

It might change here anytime soon. I love no time change, but there is a vocal minority that hates it. The most ridiculous excuses to bring time change back: cows are nervous and its hard for "managers" to wake up for work after watching sport events live   |

you mean literally 1 hour, right ? That one sunday morning it changes from 2 am to 3 am. Sundays. The day most people can sleep aslong as they want.  |
It's not only about that one hour, it means that the night falls in like 4 PM! Instead of 5, and I like my day to be bright as much as possible, since my concentration falls rapidly when sun sets :\
Like who needs daylight in 6 or 7 AM?!!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but AFAIK Russians stayed with the summer time forever, which is bad.
So called "winter time" is astronomically natural time, where at noon the sun is at its zenith and an object casts shadow vertically. So noon in real noon, midnight is real midnight, unlike in "daylight saving time".
I hate summer time, I feel like my body has it's "clock" synchronized with natural time so I really have trouble getting up at 7 AM for job because it's actually 6 AM natural time and then I go to work tired (and no, it doesn't help if I go to sleep earlier). So winter time ftw, fuck one hour of daylight at the evening, I'm not a plant.
