There are a couple of reasons for DST.  One is to conserve energy.  The more
light we have during the "day" the less we have to use electricity to run
lights in the houses, etc.  It's other purpose is so that the school kids
don't have to stand out in the dark and wait for the bus in the morning.

"Come on really, think about it, what  is the advantage to DST?  I think 
it's ridiculous.  Don't tell me "the  farmers want it"  I live in the middle

of farm country, we don't want  it.  It's stupid, plain stupid.  Make it go 
ther other way, that makes  sense.  Make it so I have an
extra hour of daylight in the afternoon."
