"I call bullshit that people will always be sleep deprived due them being "out of rhythm" with solar noon."

it literally already happens, some people's rhythms already don't match their work schedule so they suffer poor health consequences.

Here are just some of the disorders:

shifting to GMT-4 would make this worse because more people would not match their natural rhythms



again, I really don't understand your knee-jerk reaction against. you obviously don't know anything about this topic, so why is your response to say "BS!!!" instead of "maybe that is true, perhaps I should google this and read about it"

I know what Circadian rhythm sleep disorder but considering that most people do not get up with the sun or spend a significant amount of time outside I have difficulty believing they would be eternally doomed from a 1 hour shift.

What about people who move from the East Coast to the West Coast????
They adapt.....
Not because of the synch up with the sun but because their schedules adapt to the social and work time schedules of their new environment. I have actually read that DST actually helps people during the summer time synch up their natural biological clock to the mechanical clocks of modern society. As without DST they would be sleeping during daylight hours

jesus christ

do you think the sun rises and sets at the same time on the west coast? they eventually adjust because the day has literally shifted by hours, that doesn't happen with moving to GMT-4

^^that infographic pretty much wrecks any semblance of an argument dtownral has attempted to present here.

Imgur told Smath74 that deleting System32 would speed up his computer, so he did it

No shit the sun doesn't rise and set at the same time. Like I said people don't sleep under moon roofs that lets in first light nor do people spend enough time to which they would be fully "in-synch" with natural daylight. People adjust when they move time zones because their entire schedule has shifted rather it be when they go to work, go out to watch a ball game, or meeting up with friends for dinner.

By the way it is amazing people can live in cities Buffalo where it can be cloudy weeks in a row. I'm sure without the sun everyone gets ALL out of synch, becomes sleep deprived, and goes crazy

Today I learned that the sun doesn't rise when its cloudy
