D.L.S. trailing right now 40-59 in the negative for those who want D.L.S.

Thanks for the Kite crew who put this up

Thanks for posting this mineral it is now 42-57.

c'mon boys get into it!! the margin is closing

so when your boss tells you that you ahve to work 0900 - 1700 you just say **** OFF!!!?????

Like everyone else, the cows and old people get over it.. Yes, it's lighter outside when Coronation st. is on.. so what!

It is amusing to get the cows in for milking the first few days of daylight saving because instead of being up and ready to walk, they're all still lying around sleeping, and get up in a panic when the bike appears in the paddock.

Actually, I never figured out how come we shifted milkings with daylight saving - it's not like it really matters when you're working outside all day anyway.

NZ has just extended daylight saving by a few weeks. The health benefits of people getting outside and seeing more daylight, coupled with the energy savings of less lighting, heating and TV swung the decision.

Now that we're in DST here, I can get out for a 3 hour session after work, and it's not even mid-summer yet.

I thought it had the opposite effect in Perth though as people come home "earlier" (relative to the sun) so it is hot for a greater percentage of their hometime. Thus they use the aircon and pool pump etc more. Then you tend to stay up a bit later so more TV.
There is less lights in use but the aircon use waaayy over compensated in Perth last summer

D.L.S was voted down in three previous referendums, why does one pollie believe that his constituents know nothing about what they prefer. A three year trial is not a trial, it is an introduction by stealth

Yeah Baby,

Kill of DLS

I have no probs sailing evenings in winter let alone summer.

DLS means more whiney boys down on the beach, grizzling about people like me who'll vote against it.[}:)][}:)]

Only 2 years to go the the beaches are mine once more

(Even Bigger Flame suit fitted and new curtains)

DLS is getting smashed now! That's terrible!

Oh yeah, I guess thats something then Elmo.

Yeah, his name's ELMO

Log onto web site, select previous poll, scroll down a smidgin, DLS won that one, so which one they going to refer too,
The early one that is true and honest
Or this latest terribly slanted lop sided excuse for a real poll[}:)]

Are the rural votes going to be weighted again in the next referendum?

I know WA's a fantastic place but how is gaylight saving in WA going to affect you in SA?

PS
You may note that with the Pro DSL lobby you don't even have to bait the hook they jump straight into the boat when you show them a faded curtain.

I know a few ppl that before last summer where against DLS and are now for it, hopefully after another 2 summers more people will come around

It will get the ar$e again, good riddance.
If you don't like it then get a job when you can sail early enough.
DLS is not necessary for us here in WA as we get plenty of hours of daylight all year round. It is used during summer in the higher latitudes of the northern hemisphere as they get very short daylight hours in winter so wish to maximise their summer daylight hours to compensate. We are not in this situation, so it is pointless.
Additionally the argument of business in the west being able to operate better with the east doesn't make sense. After all how does the USA manage when they have more time zones than us? They have a much larger economy which i'm sure copes just fine.
You want daylight savings then go live in Europe where it makes sense.
