    Many healthcare studies have proven health concerns. As a nation don't we have enough health concerns to add any additional concerns. Accidents and heart attacks increase as an example of adverse health issues. Please stop this antiquated practice. In many states there are no energy savings and have an increase in use of energy!!! Stop this now!!!

    Daylight saving time does nothing, but create confusion and mess with your clocks. There are only so many hours of daylight in a day, doesn't matter what you do with you clocks. Please let's stop the silly stuff.

    Stop fooling around with Mother Nature. Hasn't the government manipulated enough of our lives without messing with our sleep and costing millions of dollars in services to implement? It makes no sense,.

    Please stop the ridiculous practice of changing the clocks twice every year. It is not good for anyone's health to have their schedules changed twice a year. People get sick, can't be their best at work or at home. Kids can't go to sleep on time or get up for school on time. Don't ignore this any more! I don't care which way they leave the clocks, as long as they leave them alone!

    Please, please let's stop changing the time. Let's leave it alone it does not save anything. It is harder for the kids to go to sleep at night, which makes it harder for them to get up for school in the morning. Sleep schedules are important!

    There is absolutely no logical reason for the time change (falling back) in the winter. The winters are dreary, grey, and cold enough without the sun going down in practically the late afternoon? I've looked into this ridiculous joke, and no one really knows where this stupid idea came from... The answer you get from EVERYONE is: "Ummm, something about the farmers?"... The truth is, from what I found (God bless Wikipedia) : "... Contrary to popular belief, American farmers did not lobby for daylight saving to have more time to work in the fields; in fact, the agriculture industry was deeply opposed to the time switch when it was first implemented on March 31, 1918, as a wartime measure..."

    Please stop changing the time. I don't care if we go to standard time or daylight savings time but please just pick one and stay with it. My children have a hard time adjusting to the leap forward as do I. I believe that there is an increase in work related accidents and motor vehicle accidents the week after daylight savings time starts. And the rates of heart attack and suicide increase the week following daylight savings time start. So if by picking a time and keeping it that way year round saves 1 life, wouldn't it be worth it!?!

    I hate the time change both ways. It really screws up everyone's sleep and wake patterns and is especially hard for families with young children. Not helpful or needed anymore!

    The reason for having DST is long gone. Stop making life (and time) more complicated than is needed. Everyone can wake up in the morning and go to sleep at night, without having an artificial change in time to facilitate the process! There is enough stress today, without the additional stress of time changes that have been studied and written about (lack of sleep, etc.).

    As long as we pick ONE time and stick with it, it's a better option than going back and forth. Personally I prefer the longer days that Daylight Savings time provides so I'd choose to stick with this versus the other. All in all though, no matter which you choose, I'd be happy to stick with ONE time on my clocks year around and not the back and forth, back in forth. Pete Lucido, PLEASE stop this madness and THANK YOU for bringing this bill forth!
