    And you’d think *if anything farmers would want more sunlight in the morning when it’s cooler.

    Edited because people want to take this the wrong way. As in this another reason that DST and farmers makes no sense.

      Farmers don’t care about clocks unless they are scheduling a time to meet and using the clock for clarity.

      The sun comes up when it comes up and that is what matters. Farmers don’t care about the clock for what they consider morning, because morning is before the sun is highest in the aky. They are already getting up a few minutes earlier or later depending on whether the days are getting longer or shorter.

      DST has nothing to do with farmers.

        I think you misread my comment. It’s along the lines of if anything they would prefer the morning.

          This is like saying dogs would want better stock options when stock options don’t matter to dogs.

            This is besides what I was saying, which was again “if anything” and adding another reason why farmers and DST makes no sense. But dude people live in the world. Farmers are not 1000% in their own bubble. They need to go out to stores and get supplies and interact with the world and the supply chain. You are now taking lack of an office schedule or something to a ludicrous degree with your analogy. I wasn’t even disagreeing with your old points, I was saying “if anything” and adding another reason, but you want to go off on seemingly everyone. Perhaps you’re confusing me with the other guy, but whatever. Cheers.

              Why add something irrelevant about something irrelevant?

              Has anyone asked Ja Rule about DST? How do you think DST impacts Ja Rule’s travel plans while on tour?
