Petition To Move Daylight Saving Time Online

For his job maintaining fire sprinkler systems, Frankie Monico commutes from Waynesboro, Pa., to Frederick. He wakes up at 5:30 a.m., he said, so when daylight saving time comes, it feels like he's getting up at 4:30 a.m.

Moving the time change from Sunday morning to Saturday, an idea proposed by New York-based public relations account coordinator--Lauren Silverman, sounds good, Monico said.

"At least it would give you another day to adjust," he said.

Silverman--partnered with Sleepy's, the bed retailer, to launch a petition to move the start of daylight saving time to 2 a.m. Saturday.

I just hate having to get up at two a.m. to change the clocks, especially in the fall when the alarm goes off again an hour later! They should move it to Saturday morning or something.

I am just annoyed because daylight savings now lasts for about 8 months out of the year.

Oh, and getting up on the Monday morning after the changeover is kind of a pain.

Leave the time the way it is supposed to be. The change has proven not to be healthy anyway.

Oh please change the day for day light savings day it has only been the same way for at least a century.

Oh, God! I can't deal with either! Can we have it adjust 5 times a year so I won't be so sleepy eyed?
Jeeze, folks, get a grip! THINK! We have a good system going. STFU!
