to change clocks. I have a clock on the wall in my den that I must change twice a year. I have
to climb on a chair to get up to it.
I have recently decided to eliminate all climbing from my life unless it is a life-threatening situation.
Anyway, think of geezers and geezerettes climbing to change their clocks. Think of the possible expenses to Medicare.
Wouldn't it save money if we got rid of DST?
(One thing I do like about DST, the mornings are lighter now.)
