I like daylight saving time.. it saves daylight! Well, I like the longer days anyway. At least it raises the possibility of going for a run in the park after work (naturally, not the actuality of it). What I don't like is the switch -- it throws my inner clock out of whack, and frankly, I'm not a morning person.
If daylight saving time gives us more hours of daylight in the 'live-able' hours of the day therefore saving electricity, sanity and calories.. why the bloody hell don't we just stay on it? Why switch? Let Arizona and those other backwater states stay in their timewarp and the rest of us can enjoy nice evenings full of sunlight.

Because it's REALLY dark in the morning during the winter. Without switching back the sun wouldn't come up until 9 in the morning (depending on where you live).
