Yes it would be the same.\n\nDaylight saving time is used between summer and winter and not where they exist.\n\nSince the durations of day are very different in Summer and winter, it is better to have long working days in summer.\n\nThis is the reason why some countries don't follow it. Those at equator (similar suntimes in winter and summer) don;t follow and those away from equator(different suntimes in winter and summer) follow daylight saving time.

"The change to Daylight Saving Time (not Savings!) allows us to use less energy in lighting our homes by taking advantage of the longer and later daylight hours."\n\nAs an aside, my birthday is on one of the last days in October, meaning that sometimes I have a 25-hour birthday... at least until 2007, when the time change back from DST will be pushed to the end of November.

Daylight savings time was invented by Benjamin Franklin as a way for people to have more productive days. In the summer we "borrow" an hour from the morning and stick it onto the end of the day so that the long summer days are even longer.

I don't see how they can do away with them. It is a fact that the time is not running exactly to the second every year. If they did away with them they would eventually have to adjust something or atomic time would be different then local time.

Because some people cannot get up at the proper time of day to do their work they do not understand those who do.\n\nThere is the same number of hours of daylight either side of noon so adjust your day to suit that. There is no need to have British Summer Time, Daylight Saving Time, etc so stick to the natural time for your area of the world. That means GMT in the UK

They're made so the clock corresponds to daylight.  It was convenient to break the world into one-hour zones, which would give you 24.  The zones are determined by state and national boundaries and population concentrations, so they aren't perfectly straight north-south lines.  But the general result is that the sun is always about highest at noon, no matter where you are.  That only leaves the question of how we determine when we move from one day to the next.  That would be the international date line, running down through the Pacific ocean and carefully avoiding almost everything.

Because they are sensible.  DST is a huge waste of time and money.

some do, not everyone acknowledges daylight savings time.  I will post a long thing here you can read through....or if you dont want to read through it you can click on the website cite below and its about halfway down the page.\n\n\n\nAfrica\n\nEgypt\nEgypt normally observes DST between the last Thursday in April and the last Thursday in September when the clocks are three hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (UTC+3). The change is at midnight (local time); i.e. one second after 23:59:59 on that Thursday becomes 23:00:00 Thursday. The date does not change when the first 00:00 midnight occurs, for all practical purposes, midnight does not occur until then. However, the 2006 rule is an exception: the clock falls back September 22 at 01:00 so as not to disrupt Ramadan, and possibly similar exceptions will apply in 2007 and 2008.\n\n\n\nNamibia\nDST begins on the first Sunday in September, and ends on the first Sunday in April.\n\n\nTunisia\nTunisia adopted Daylight saving time for the first time in 2005 starting 1st May 2005 and following EU time schedules thereafter. This comes as a move by the government to try and promote saving of energy in the wake of the ever-rising cost of fuel in the world market.\n\n\nAsia\n\nChina\nThe People's Republic of China experimented with DST from 1986, but abandoned it in the 1990s. The PRC now uses one time zone for the whole country; the size of the nation was a major factor why DST was not considered practical in China.\n\n\nIndia\nIndia used DST briefly during war times.\n\n\nIran\nBefore 1979, DST was observed in Iran. Thereafter it was abandoned until 1989, when it started on the first day of Farvardin (21-22 March) in the Iranian calendar and ended on the first day of Mehr (23-24 September). In 2006, Iran stopped observing DST.[14]\n\n\nIsrael\nIsrael observes DST starting on the last Friday before April 2 and ending at 2 AM on the Sunday between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Until 2005, the schedule was variable: the only requirement was that there be at least 150 days per year of DST, and was set out each year by the Ministry of the Interior.[15]\n\nIn territories controlled by the Palestinian National Authority, DST ends later, which can lead to some confusion. On September 5, 1999, terrorists were transporting a bomb that they mistakenly thought was set to go off at 5:30 PM Israel Standard Time; it was actually set for 5:30 PM Palestinian Daylight Time, which was an hour ahead. As a result, the bomb went off while the bomb was still being transported, killing the terrorists (and earning them a Darwin Award).[16]\n\n\nJapan\nFrom 1948 to 1951, Japan observed DST between May and September every year under an initiative of the U.S.-led occupation army. The unpopularity of DST, for which people complained about sleep disruption and longer daytime labor (some workers had to work from early morning till dusk), caused Japan to abandon DST around the same time that its independence was restored. Since then, DST has never been officially implemented nationwide in Japan.\n\nStarting in the late 1990s, a movement to re-install DST in Japan gained some popularity, aiming at saving energy and increasing recreational time. The Hokkaido region is particularly in favor of this movement because daylight starts as early as 3:30 am (in standard time) there in summer due to its high latitude and its location near the eastern edge of the time zone. In the early 2000s, a few local governments and commerce departments promoted unmandated hour-earlier work schedule experiments during summer time without officially resetting clocks.\n\n\nJordan\nJordan UTC+2 observes daylight saving time from the end of March to the end of October.\n\n\nKazakhstan\nKazakhstan made a decision to stop observing DST in 2005.\n\n\nKyrgyzstan\nKyrgyzstan voted to stop observing DST in 2005 by remaining on UTC+6 as Standard Time (which used to be Kyrgyzstan Summer Time) to still save energy.\n\n\nPakistan\nPakistan experimented

I personally don't care which time period we stick with.....just PICK ONE and stick with it!! Having to change all those clocks twice a year in ridiculous.
