    Reset all of our clocks before I went to bed. Geez I wish they'd just pick one time or another and leave things alone.

    Since there are people that hate each choice I've always thought we should just spring forward 30 minutes and stop there!!

    I personally hated not having long summer nights before Indiana started changing its clocks..
