Daylight Saving Time brings fatigue, maybe heart attacks

The annual tradition of losing in hour's sleep on night in the spring appeared during the First World War, as a money-saving measure, but these days the time-shift seems only to cost us — in health.

    If your an hour away from a heart attack you've got bigger problems to worry about.

    More like a sense of being robbed of a good hour's sleep for no good reason. Lousy farmers! :P

    I wonder if they have done a study for people going to the bar till all hours of the night. Every weekend. I wonder if that brings on fatigue, or maybe heart attacks :-)

    Maybe that falls under the alcohol being the greatest health threat for Canadians.

    Don't blame this bullshit on farmers! I live right in the middle of a farming community, and I can tell you, the vitriol spewed by the farmers around here about DST around here...

    Twice a year I hear the threats about "packing up the farm and moving to Saskabush"! :lol:

    Nobody seems to like it but our Governments impose it on us anyway.

    I like it, but I can understand why you old geezers have a problem with DST.

    DST is one of mankind's greatest inventions - anything that lets me sit on my deck and enjoy the sun until 10pm in the summer ranks up there with electricity, flight & computers!

    If it was a day that I could sleep in on it wouldn't bother me at all and didn't back when I had Sundays off. I had to be up at 615 this morning for work and it was hard to drag my ass out of bed... another hour sleep would have been nice :lol: .

    I would prefer just to leave it as is and not bother changing it twice a year. Not likely that it'll ever change though.
