    Yeah, Randall has it wrong. The USA House just voted to make Daylight
    Savings Time permanent for the nation. My congresscritter just voted
    for it.

    "H.R. 139, the Sunshine Protection Act, which ends an outdated practice
    by making daylight saving time permanent, meaning most Americans would
    no longer have to "spring forward" and "fall back" each year. By making daylight saving time permanent, Americans can enjoy more usable daylight
    after work and school."

    Gonna be dark until 8 am or so in the winter. Still, stopping the
    stupid time changes will be a relief.
