    Sunlight in the morning is better for overall mental health.
    The Sun staying out later has no such affect.

    Here is a good video from a sleep researcher who has, in
    past, also been featured on PBS:

    I don't know about BC but the golf industry has been one
    of the main pushers for year-long DST in the US.

    Mike, I wonder ifthe same argument/reason for permanent DST is the same ones used inthe 1950's to change the Central Standard Time section of Kentucky into the Eastern Standard Time zone for those who fly from KY to the Northeast daily.
    I remembers the Drive-in Movie places was against doing that as it would delay their start up time one hout later.
