what's the point of dst any way?
i'll still feel like i got a hangover in the morning and no matter chloe and i still gotta get emmy and dh outta the house fer the day...

the only cats we have are in chloe's imagination. she has a whole farm now..

[IADad]

how cute! (as long as she doesn't plan on combining them....)

thanks. no she aint to that--hopefully never.
chloe ain't one for strangers at all so she sicked a couple of her pet snakes and gator on the cable guy about a week ago. he told her he'd bite them back. lol she just kept on goin' anyway. if he'd been here much longer that day, she'd have charmed a dollar outta him and he'd have her giving him lots of hugs and kisses. the little fart...

It makes cultivation a lot easier, you cannot pick your say, asparagus in the dark, you need full light, without daylight saving you are losing an hour a day of picking, which loses you money.

Exactly Jeremy. I grew up on a 1200 acre dairy farm, so the more daylight the better.

but the thing I don't get, is there's the same amount of daylight, we're just moving the clock around....call it 982 o'clock and it's still either light or dark...I mean instead of adjusting the clock forward an hour, just work an hour later in the day, it's the same difference.

This.

Its not like farmers are working 9-5. Most I know, its sun-up to sun-down (during harvest its all night, they have lights), the "time" is meaningless.

These asparagus farmers sound like a bunch of candy-asses

[IADad]

oh great, he's just reignited the century's old asparagus/corn wars.....

that's confuses me. what does it matter if the sun comes up and sets a bit later in the day?? don't ya still have pretty much the same amount of time to harvest and plant all those crops and take care of all the critters
???
