    I always wonder what you do today if you have a 1:30am flight. Guess you get there early and hope it is the first 1:30, if not an extra hour at the airport bar

    by moving the clock forward, you "save" more light for later in the day.

    seems like only some people from Indiana, Hawaii and Arizona don't get that it's a nice feature...

    As something like 80%+ of the world's population doesn't do this (and now the US does the spring one at a different time from the rest of the world too, completely random), it's pretty inconvenient. Now NFL games don't start til 2am, makes it even more difficult to watch.

    this is my serious beef with "falling back" one hour... it gets so fucking depressing in the fall and winter. Must suck for the Northerners even more.

    You guys get out of bed an hour earlier for half the year and then change your clock to convince yourselves that you didn't. lol "nice feature".
