natural is best

Like most kids, I loved Daylight Saving Time, setting the clocks ahead an hour to enjoy more light in the evening.  Turns out the days get longer naturally, sun setting later and rising earlier--changing the clocks just throws things off, makes you feel like you're running behind.  We'd be better off leaving the clocks alone and adjusting schedules where appropriate to take advantage of the daylight.  Keeping DST year round is not the answer.  You can change the clocks, but not your feeling for where we are in the progression of the day.  It's never good to lie about the truth of nature.  Please let's stop this disorienting craziness.
