I'm anti-switching, and I went with "keep standard," since I figure there's a reason it was standard. Although keep the "summer" hours wouldn't hurt my feelings.

I saw a proposal several years back to get rid of two of our time zones, lumping Eastern with Central and Pacific with Mountain. The two zones would actually be 2 hours apart. I forget the plan for Alaska and Hawaii.

At this point, I'm a fan of daylight.  I'm not a fan of wasting time at work during daylight.  So I figured daylight saving time schedule would get me more usable sunshine.  this whole "get out of work and it's dark" thing sucks.

I like it dark when I get out of work.  It's nice.  No annoying flaming sphere of oppressive heat death hanging overhead.

Now if only I could also get it to go away in the mornings.

Agreed.

Also, I give less than a fuck about this topic. Leave it, change it, whatever.

6 days out of 7 I am awake before the sun is up anyway no matter what time of year, so it really makes no difference to me.

On the one hand, you have to get up earlier during modern gun season than you do during bow season.  On the other hand, your eating dinner after the afternoon hunt at a more reasonable hour.
