That is nuts. In this climate life is better in the cool morning. Who wants to extend an overheated afternoon? The last time this was tried was in 1977 by Jimmy Carter. For those of us in the western part of time zones winter sunrise did not happen until almost 9:00 AM. Insane. Children waiting for school busses in the dark of night every morning. Particularly dangerous on rural roads in rural school districts. More stranger danger too, with little children out in the dark.
