    Yes, I did notice that there was more light yesterday because usually at five o' clock its usually dark. I like longer daylight hours because I get to be outside more.

    Yes, I noticed it stayed lighter outside. I don't sleep so that 1 less hour doesn't matter to me. I like the fact that I can run around at 6pm and it wont be dark.
