In the middle of winter, the days are too short no matter what end of the day the hour of sunlight goes. In summer, the days are so long there is plenty of daylight no matter what. Maybe it makes a tiny difference for a short time in spring or fall to have the clocks change, but.... is it REALLY worth all that hassle??
I wonder how long it'll be until they start asking to have it reinstated.
