Unless you are a morning person. Also, pick your poison. Pitch black
in the morning when people are trying to get to work (struggling to
get to Starbucks for java) or pitch black when people commuting home,
tired from yet another day of paying taxes.


Well, north of the Mason-Dixon line it's already pitch black in the morning
at drive-time, in December/January.

Shifting DST back for more evening light wouldn't change that. (Well,
okay -- it would make it darker for those who start work at 9 AM or later.)

Now, with farmers
representing far less than 1% of the population, to have darkness every
afternoon is just silly, unsafe, and expensive.



But, maybe this is a better reason for evening light: Flying after work.
