Please stop daylight saving time

  • mottagare: Stop daylight saving time 
Daylight saving time was mentioned by Benjamin Franklin in 1784.The modern idea of daylight saving was first proposed in 1895 by George Vernon Hudson and it was first implemented during the first world war. 
This was long time before we had tv and computers, it has noting to do with saving energy, it is a waste of energy.
Our morningrituals are always the same: shower, breakfast, go to work/school. It doesn't matter what time we do that, it doesn't save any energy.
When DST starts the clocks advance from 2 to 3, that means we miss one hour of sleep. We get up one hour earlier, we have to eat one hour earlier and go to bed one hour earlier. It gives the feeling something is missing all day. 
Summer should be a happy period, enjoy our nice warm evening, sit outside, stay up late. The clock says it's 11 so we have to go to bed because we have to go to work/school. It doesn't feel right because it's really 10 pm, it gives the feeling we are missing something. We try to complete that void by eating an drinking, it's not going to work, the feeling stays all summer, every day. Kids get cranky, they don't want to go to bed because it's playing time, enjoy the daylight.
The void also gives us te feeling we have to hurry, so we keep running all day. We will never win this because our clock  keeps fooling us by one hour. 
Our intestine and liver want to digest food at noon and will be confused when we eat at 11.Baby's digestive system will be confused if we change nourishing time. Pets are rambling: I have to eat now? Go for a walk now? I don't have to go!
If we turn back time again in winter we have to go throught the same problem again. It's dark and cold, we are tired, want to go to bed but it's just 10 pm. So we watch tv, work on our computer, eat and drink to stay awake and waste a lot of electricity. No matter how fast our clock is running the sun will shine forever.
