Farmers cried long and hard to their elected representatives and had the DLST extension cut back from the proposed one month extension in the spring and fall. The farmers say that the cows are not ready to be milked in the dark.
Well, milk them when the sun comes up.
AH! We can't do that because we have to be at our other jobs in town by that time.
So, you are not a full time farmer?
Well, of course, when it comes to getting agricultural subsidies and not wanting DLST, but with my other job, no.
As far as the computer people saying it will be too much of a hassle to change the time on computers, they are full of it. Any number of times a month, Microsoft has an update for me. You can't tell me that changing the clock in computers is such a great task that we should be stuck with the curent time period for DLST. I have a weird clock radio with all sorts of programming that makes it impossible for me to use as a wake up device, but it sets itself automatically from the atomic clock in a big lab somewhere and, sure enough, it did. I watched it go from 1:59AM to 1:00AM.
