Spring Ahead (with poll)

Sounds like a good compromise.

I don't wish to belabor this but screwing with peoples internal clocks is just mean. Pete consistently gets sick when we lose the hour because her body just needs to stay on a rythmn. Our country is large enough that we could probably link a few extra deaths to driving at sun up again or even link an early death or two to illness brought on by weakening immune systems. It's possible that some folks save a little energy, but we could do more by increasing cafe standards, enforcing travel restrictions and putting LJ out of the Grand Cherokee business. I'm not for that either.
