Jim Lindgren’s extending Daylight Savings Time plan sounds good, but I’d much rather extend daylight. L.A., where I live, is already on average warmer and sunnier than most places in the U.S. Why shouldn’t it be on average lighter?
This whole everyone-gets-12-hours-of-daylight-a-day-on-average plan sounds wrong to me; another example of hyperegalitarianism run amok. Maybe even Communism. We Americans deserve better — there ought to be a law, or something. Sixteen hours a day of light on average, with eight hours of darkness, sounds about right to me, but I’ll be willing to compromise on 14-10. And, no, I’m not in the mood to move hemispheres myself twice a year; I want the light to come to me . . . .
