The harmful effects arise from the twice-yearly adjustment, not the absolute setting.
The problem with all of this as Paul has noted is that sunrise changes continually throughout the year and from location to location, so the action of moving the only fixed element - time - is somewhat academic anyway? Our bodies respond to the light not the alarm clock :) NOT having to be in an office at 9AM during the present upheaval means that the forthcoming change will make little difference to many people and in reality it is just a matter of is there really any point in moving the clock at all? Over here school starting times are being staggered by year groups so spreading them over 'problem' times anyway ... in future just add a factor into that for 'sunrise'? Schools can be flexible based on there own sunlight conditions if they really think it is necessary? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - https://lsces.uk/wiki/Contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - https://lsces.uk Model Engineers Digital Workshop - https://medw.uk Rainbow Digital Media - https://rainbowdigitalmedia.uk
