> 63 percent support the elimination of seasonal time changes in favor of a national, fixed, year-round time, and only 11 percent oppose it This is some early-bird conspiracy BS. Those stats obviously don't mean people want to eliminate daylight savings time, it means they want to eliminate the change itself. I think a much higher % would prefer making daylight savings time permanent (staying light out later). Also, their justification for earlier darkness is sleep related health issues. But what about the health issues related to hearth disease: the #1 cause of death in the USA?[1]....think about the amount of exercise done between the hours of 5pm-9pm (after work jogs/walks/gym, youth sports, etc). There's no doubt in my mind there would be less overall exercise if it were constantly dark out earlier.
