One e-mail, from Galloway Twp, New Jersey:
I for one cannot WAIT for daylight savings to kick in. As our children (a 3 yr old & a 10 month old) tend to rise with the sun, we’ve been getting less & less sleep as morning comes earlier & earlier. I’ll gladly lose an hour on a Sunday morning if it means sleeping till 6:30 instead of 5:30…
BTW, the reason AZ does not participate in daylight savings is because they are on the western edge of the Mountain time zone so sunrise is not nearly as early for them as it is on the eastern edge of that time zone. (Indiana does not participate either since it is on the western edge of the eastern time zone).
Daylight savings lets me get much more work done on my house by giving me an extra hour of daylight after work.
And another:
Daylight Savings Time is no “racket.” It’s the one time of year when it is still light out when I get home from work. I am, therefore, able to actually spend some time outside, with my family, in the sunshine.
Any politician who even proposes to take away this time with my family will make himself, and possibly his entire party, an eternal enemy of mine. I kid you not.
I love National Review, and am addicted to NRO and the Corner, but your crusade against it has put my continuing interest in National Review seriously at risk. Be warned and act accordingly. (And tell Miller that he needs to consider things other than the almighty dollar. He needs crunchy-con lessons.)
Now I smell Celebrity Deathmatch NRO: Crunchy Cons vs. The Corner.
