Daylight Squandering Time

Early this morning was when our clocks "Fall back" at the end of Daylight Saving Time. Now we're into... Daylight Squandering Time?

I do appreciate the time change meaning that it's light in the sky when my 6:45am weekday alarm rings. Today I actually got out of bed at 6:44 instead of my weekend 8am alarm time because it was so bright out (and because I'd gotten an extra hour of sleep). The thing is, while I do like the added daylight in the morning, I dislike the loss of daylight in the afternoon/evening even more. Sunset is at 5:06pm today. It'll be totally dark out by 5:30pm.

Count me as one of the people who prefers eliminating the twice-a-year time change... by going on Daylight Saving Time permanently.
