    It was dark, black dark, when I headed out the door to the office to work. Grumble grumble grumble. Why can't they just leave the clocks alone??

    My atomic clock didn't change, either.

    I couldn't get out of bed for boot camp this morning. It was like 4 a.m.!

    Then why change them at all? This DST thing 7 months out of the year is what I question. Why not set the clocks, and leave them alone??? Why bother "falling back"?

    I'm in the "hate DST" camp. What, after all, is the point of "saving" daylight during the time of the year when there is plenty to begin with? If it were just the standard time, and we never switched, I'd be happy. Winter is when I barely have time to train after work. On the longest day of the year, it isn't truly dark until around 11 here.

    Now that the dates are different, it starts on the day of my favorite ski race - that stinks. A 9am race that now effectively starts at 8am.

    I also grew up in a county in Indiana that didn't switch, and even after all these years I don't get it.
