    I enjoy the longer evenings in Summer and having the sun up at and earlier clock in winter. I’m not sure why some people hate it so much. Most people have smart phones and electronic calendars that update automatically and everything just works, no input needed. A genuine question for people who don’t like it, why not? What specifically is bothersome?

      Because while the sun is up it’s extraordinarily hot and the UV is high. The more north you go, the hotter it is in the evenings and the less it makes sense.

        Slip slop slap if you need to. But also, I’m in Melbourne so it’s good to have evening daylight. I think because Australia is so huge the effect of DLS is very different across the latitude. It’s good in the southern states.
