....forget to set your alarm clock for 2 a.m. on March 14, 2010, so that you can turn your clock ahead 1 hour.

I am so happy. I love DST.

Oh yeah, just tickles me silly, reminds me of steaming west to the far east and losing an hour every two days.
Tell me, Wayne, does your alarm clock play reveille or the Marine Hymn?

I, SOOOO, hate this change!! Would love to just stay on DST all year like they do in AZ & HI. Lived in both states and never missed changing when the rest of the country changed. Just leave it on DST. Nationally there is millions of dollars of lost productivity every time it happens.

Okay, off my soapbox..........

I like it lighter longer in the evening.

Marine Corps Hymn, of course. Makes one stand at attention.

I'm really big on being outdoors, so I can dig more daylight.

Oh! And those automatic clocks that reset themselves when the time chages! Well, I wonder how they are programmed. Do the change based on a time sync from the National Observatory, or are they programmed into the clock by specifics. Hmmm!

This is the first time I've been in a state that doesn't change (AZ) - and I have to say, it's very nice - although my TV and my computer both thought they should change so I had to fix that, but otherwise, a nice (not) change :-)
