“Year-round daylight saving time” (letters on Dec. 16-17) offers three choices: 1). Standard time all year, 2). Daylight saving time all year, or 3). Change the clocks twice a year as we do now. But not everyone likes standard time and not everyone likes daylight savings time. What about: 4). Move the clocks half an hour and leave them there?

What about do away with clocks and run on nature's time like the animals have for thousands of years?
Hey, Tafhdyd
We're retirees... we don't need alarm clocks. We're up before 5 am naturally. Oh, and as retirees... every day is Friday.
Ray,
Good point and don’t forget that it is also 5 o’clock somewhere 👍
Honestly since no one can agree on what time we should stay on, and everyone hates the clock-change ritual this might be the best idea.
