Daylight savings time debate

Well, as pointed out in the article (and in previous posts here), it's supposed to reduce energy consumption since we'll have more daylight during "normal" hours.

I don't disagree (unless the Senate study shows extended DST will have a detrimental effect on energy use or some other component of our society).

I think DST improves peoples' moods, too. Could have psychological/mental benefits that are not tangible.
