What the Hell does it matter? On any given day there are x minutes of 
daylight and NOTHING can change that: having Permanent DST or NO DST 
does NOT change the number of minutes of daylight one fucking second. If 
you want more fucking daylight in the morning, get the fuck out of bed 
earlier and IF you want more fucking daylight in the evening, stay the 
fuck out of bed. What could be more simpler than that>
