I think the mere fact that Cuomo presented himself as though he had not resigned in disgrace is yet another example of his deflection and gaslighting. And a slap in the face to every woman who has ever experienced sexual harassment.

You literally used the qualifiers "I believe" and "if I'm correct" in your post which could easily leave doubt in the minds of your readers concerning the history. I merely intended to support your thread with the specific dates and chronology. Please don't tell me that that counts as mansplaining.

Permanent DST would mean that most Americans would be getting up, driving to work or going to school in complete darkness for three months out of the year. Where I live, dawn wouldn't break until after 8:00 a.m. No thanks.

Can we please stop calling it "Daylight Saving Time"? Losing an hour of sunlight every morning does not "save" daylight. It merely steals it from dawn and gives it to dusk. It's like the reverse Robin Hood principle, but with daylight.

Just a final reminder as we head into the home stretch that a vote for Cuomo is a slap in the face to every woman who has ever been the victim of sexual harassment.

Un dernier rappel, à l'approche du scrutin, que voter pour Cuomo est une gifle pour toutes les femmes qui ont un jour été victimes de harcèlement sexuel.

DLT originated in Canada in 1908. The first nationwide implementation of DLT was by Germany in 1916 and it wasn't until 1918 that DLT, then called "War Time," was established in the United States.
November 3, 2025 at 10:43 AM
You don't "gain" or "save" an hour when you shift from DLT to ST or vice versa. A solar day is always approximately 24 hours.
November 3, 2025 at 10:41 AM
As I said, the problem with "Daylight Shifting Time" is that it doesn't indicate whether the shift is toward more light in the morning or toward more light at night.

And none too soon! Artificially delaying daylight by an hour does not "save" daylight. It merely prolongs darkness in the morning and daylight at night, neither of which is healthy or desirable. Let's end this absurdity and return to natural time year round.

And how much better to rise with sunshine, instead of getting up at night as we are forced to do under Daylight Losing Time!

A wholehearted "yes!" to ending the biannual time shift but they're not equal. Standard Time is natural and healthier.
