I CAN'T WAIT TIL WEDNESDAY 12/22

Because Tuesday 12/21 is the winter solstice, so after that the days will get longer. I hate these "dark at 5pm" days.

Agree….I find it depressing and it makes me feel tired. 6pm feels like 10pm.

Yeah, but it's too bad the lengthening of the days happens so slowly. I want it now!

@DREAMON  Ditto! What prompted this thread was my feeling like it's been a long evening and getting tired and I should go to bed, then looking at the clock and seeing it was only 9pm.

I like the seasonal changes. Light/dark number of hours, fine with me. What I would like is the "saving time change" nonsense to stop. Saving time? Who's time? Not mine.

@hckynutjohn  Different topic, let's not hijack. That's been argued to death here.

ONLY 9 pm?   Heck, that's when I usually go to bed anymore.  LOL!

I never mind when darkness comes earlier.  In fact I don't even think about it.  I know it affects many people but I go about my business as usual , early darkness doesn't interfere.

I totally agree with you.... 

it's antiquated and messes with many folks internal clocks

As I have gotten older my perfect night vision has gotten awful.
