I like DST, but not because it saves energy. It just seems silly to sleep through the best light because the rest of the world is on a late cycle.

Before DST, factories and shops had summer and winter hours. Work might start at 6:30 in the summer and 8:00 in the winter. DST is essentially a standardization of that.
