Why do we change the clocks? Benjamin Franklin, who first came up with the idea of moving the clocks according to daylight. Coldplay singer Chris Martin's great-great-grandfather is responsible for introducing the idea of moving the clocks in the UK. When did we start changing our clocks?
William Willett used to get cross when it got too dark for him to carry on playing golf. William Willett unfortunately died before he could see his idea introduced. What do people think of it?

Time change sucks, each direction. We should leave the clocks alone and follow the sun. We should follow the cows, the chickens, the huskies, the lyons, the tigers, and every living things that is around.
Who are we to disrupt their daily life cycle? We should learn from them and leave as naturally as possible. Let's follow the sun and the moon instead of the clock and all electronic devices. This ridiculous law needs to be repealed.
The native Americans said it best: Only a white man would believe you could cut a foot off the top of a blanket, sew it to the bottom, and have a longer blanket.
I wish DST was year round. Hate seeing it get dark at 4 in the afternoon during the winter. Love the light later.. Who wants it getting dark at 8 in the middle of summer?
I think DST is awful. Time doesn't change. Silly people change time. It makes everyone feel bad. I am always glad when clocks go back to REAL time. I personally cannot stand DST! I absolutely hate driving home from work in the dark. Please stay with standard time! I think DST is ridiculous and we should do away with it. Personally I'm tired of always changing the time for this.
Keep the DST and don't change it again. That's not natural. Why are we always messing with nature? Standard time is the best.

In the fall autumn , the DST period usually ends, and our clocks are set back to standard time again. In terms of hours on the clock, we gain one hour, so the day of the transition is 25 hours long. In effect, one hour is repeated as local time jumps from DST back to standard time.
Let's say that clocks fall back from 2 to 1 o'clock. This means that the hour between 1 and 2 o'clock happens twice during the night of the switch. It also means that a time like am refers to two different moments, which are one hour apart. So if you're out to meet somebody during that hour—which really lasts two hours—make sure to specify if the meeting is before the switch first hour or after it second hour.
