That’s what you will be feeling tomorrow morning, and it can mess up both your mental and physical health. People who study this find all kinds of problems result from the time change. Evidently our minds and bodies are tied into a rhythm of daylight and night-time darkness.
A plurality of people in the U.S. want to have year round daylight saving time, but the experts who study this find that to be the worst of three alternatives. They say if we plan to adopt one year-round time setting, it should be “standard time.” The second best option is what we are doing now–daylight savings time in the lighter months; standard in the winter. The worst option with the most harmful physical and mental problems would be year-round daylight savings time.
By the way, the CIA is aware of what light and dark can do. One of the ways it tortured prisoners after 911 was to put them into cells with a bright light that was never turned off.
My own problem is not knowing which way to set the clocks. People tell me, “fall back.” I occasionally fall, but I always fall forward. I don’t think I’ve fallen backwards in my entire life. My solution to this uncertainty is to wake up on Sunday morning and turn on my computer. It lists the time in the upper right-hand corner.
