Indeed - daylight savings supporters seem to delight in 
denigrating the opposition based on the 'country bumpkin' 
stereotype. It really is rather tiresome.

It would be nice if both sides admitted it was all about
what suits their lifestyle best, and that what fits the
lifestyle best varies by location.

For my own part, I find that daylight savings offers *me*
no significant benefits but provides a great pain in the
arse when it comes to changing the clocks and adjusting
multi-timezone meetings. I am 'enjoying' Pacific Daylight
Time (UTC-7) right now. 

Cheers,

Raymond
