    • What the FUCK happened to late-night comedy?

    Watching old Dave Letterman clips on Youtube followed by Jimmy Kimmel or one of those English blokes you chaps seem to love so much is really an eye opener.

          This is for where I live. Imagine the left and right sides shifting up an hour. Yeah it would be dark until nearly 9am in Dec/Jan, but on the flip side it would be light until almost 6pm (instead of 5pm). Anyway...I have zero control over what will be decided, I'll find the benefits to either scenario, no point in grumbling.

              If DST didn't exist, it would not be reinvented, and the shocked faces at anybody proposing it would be shockier than the shocked faces at those against the idea now.

                Kids go to school too early. Known fact. Kids need more sleep.

                  As far as I can tell, the main reason the high school starts so ridiculously early is so that they can use the buses three times, once for each school. Having 16 year-olds go in at 7am is bloody stupid.

                  I was only joking

                    Read Walker's "Why We Sleep." Outstanding book.

                    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                              I don't think this will happen. It would mean all kids going to school in the dark.
