Daylight Savings Time · Chuck Douglas

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Twenty one minutes wait in the top of the hour,
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Chuck Douglas in the Power Hour on six to ten
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: double UTV and A two one nine eight eighty six
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: A two one DOUBTV and or one eight hundred and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: six to ten double UTV, and I will listen to you.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: I will.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: I promise you, I will listen to your reasoning. I
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: just won't agree with you. But if you are in
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: favor of actual legislation Washington, DC, federal legislation that would
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: make daylight saving time the permanent twelve months of the
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: year time in this country, I'd love to know your reasoning.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I call it daylight deception time. All we're doing is
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: is making ourselves feel better.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: But it's not real.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: We love to say, all the sun doesn't go down
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: to like nine to fifteen.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: It's great.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Now the sun's going down at the same time the
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: sun always goes down. You just changed the clock. Rush
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Limbaugh used to say when when they were talking about
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: the minimum wage and increasing to a fifteen dollars minimum wage,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and Rush always made it Why not thin, my friends,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: why not a twenty dollar minimum wage? Perhaps a twenty
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: five dollar minimum wage would be in order any perfect sense,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: perfect sense? Why would you why would you limit the
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: minimum wage? If you can just magically wave along and
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: say you're worth this much per hour, well then why
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: not make them worth twice that? Why not a thirty
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: dollars minimum wage? Because you know, and I know everybody
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: knows it's artificial, it's not real. The same thing with
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: daylight saving time. All right, so you move the clock
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: ahead an hour in the spring makes you feel better.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Tonight sunset will be at nine pm or eight fifty
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: nine pm. Why don't we just move the clock ahead
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: four hours in the spring. That way, sunset won't be
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: until one am. Yeah, you can got there and get
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: your party on till one am and still have daylight. Well, no,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: that would be unreasonable. Why why is it unreasonable? If
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: it's okay to deceive yourself by one hour, why isn't
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: it okay to deceive yourself by two or three or
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: four hours? Doesn't make sense, does it? But there are
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: still plenty of people out there who are saying, oh, yeah,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: i'd like it to be we should have more light
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: in the evening so we should know. No, I'm sorry
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: that that's absolutely wrong. The bathroom scales thing I talked
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: about with Mark earlier. Say, principle applies if you weigh
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: two hundred pounds, but you turn the scales back ten pounds,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: and then you go, look, I only weigh one hundred
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: and ninety pounds. No, you still weigh two hundred pounds.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Just because the scale has been adjusted back to say
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: you weigh one hundred and ninety does not mean you
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: weigh one hundred ninety pounds. We are talking about legislating
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: a lie, and I don't get it, and I hope that.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I hope this falls and burns quickly. And if any
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: of our Ohio representatives vote in favor, I will turn
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: on this microphone and yell my head off about it.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Common sense, common sense. But we don't have too much
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: of that anymore. I don't know if I should talk
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: about this or not. Yeah, why not, CNN's doing it.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I might as well too.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Cases this is sad. Cases of diarrhea.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Yes, outbreak of diarrhea from parasite expands to more states
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: As US cases soar beyond last year's level. It scares
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: me that there's somebody out there keeping track.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Of diarrhea cases.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: There have been one six hundred and forty five confirmed
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: cases of cyclosporiaces acquired in the United States. It's May first,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and more than fifty one hundred additional cases are being
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: investigated by the Centers for Disease Control on That was
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: their statement on Tuesday. Sharp increase in cases compared with
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: recent years, A growing outbreak in here we have it
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Michigan and Ohio has been linked to cases in West
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Virginia and Kentucky, so of course we can blame them.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: The agency says that people with the cyclos may have
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: symptoms including diarrhea, cramping, bloating for weeks. Since May first,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: case has been identified in thirty four states. Federal health
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: officials said that there are multiple investigations underway, some tied
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: to the large outbreak in the Midwest, some involving single states,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: some involving cases not yet tied to any cluster. The
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: activity tends to increase during the spring and summer, but
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: the number of confirmed cases since May first is already
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: more than six times higher than it was at this
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: time last year. If the more than seven thousand possible
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: cases that are confirmed or under investigation are included, this
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: year's total is twenty seven times higher than last year's
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: total at this time. Now, as I continue to read,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: you know, they say it's a parasite thing, but I
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: still don't know where it comes from. Michigan State Health
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Department has reported more than thirty three hundred cases. Michigan
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: said it's interviewed more than a thousand people. What kind
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: of interview is that? I like to speak to you
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: about your diarrhea problems? More than one thousand people's investigation.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Current results suggest that lettuce or salad greens may be
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a potential source for the outbreak, but they can't say
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: for sure what They are not blaming it on. And
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: again I find it funny. As this world becomes dirtier
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: and dirtier, the people in it become dirtier and dirty.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Do you remember, like four years ago cryptosporidiosis. Isn't that
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: what it was called? I think that what cryptospiritios which
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: was it was in the pool. And again this time
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of year when people start going to the pool May
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Memorial Day pools ovid and the cryptos was basically from
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: you know, dirty butt people getting in the pool. It
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: came from it came from feces in the pools and
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: one of the things it did was cause this diarrhea problem.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: And I really again, you know, I'm not a conspiracy guy,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: but I'm very curious as to why that's that's why
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: are we looking at lettuce, lettuce and salad greens as
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: a potential source for the outbreak? Is cryptosporidiosis no longer
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a problem? Dirty people in the public pool no longer
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: a problem. I have not been to a public pool
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: since I was a kid. Do they still do you
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: have the showers you get, well, you know they're nothing,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: but you have Even back then when I was a kid,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: they had the shower. You had to kind of get
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: in the shower and rents off before you went into
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: the pool. I don't know if you still have to
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: do that or not, No idea. I know that they
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: don't do showers in school anymore after gym class.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Kids.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: You know, if you got gym first or second period
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: on a hot summer day, you get to be all
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: sweaty and stinky throughout the course of the day because
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: there's no showering. We're just, I don't know, we are
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: collectively just a dirtier country. It's kind of funny at
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: the same time as we're losing these these tasks that
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: we used to have just to be reasonably clean people.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: As we continue to lose those, we want to have,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: you know, anti bacterial everything. I don't get it. Bedbug
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: survey came out last week. There's Columbus at number eight
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: in the country. I don't get it. We do everything
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: we can not to be reasonably clean about our our lives,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: and then at the same time we want to blame
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: lettuce and salad greens because a bunch of people getting diarrhea.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I oh, he's looking in the wrong direction
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned. Eight two, one night, six total.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: You're on six ten double UTV at height, Yes.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Sir, I think with the time change they do it
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: for like the construction people and people that have to
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: work outdoors or whatever in the morning, so they would
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: have to start at the same time seven versus I mean,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: if you didn't do it, then they had started eight.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: Because it's dark.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: I've seen some of those construction lights out on the freeway. Man,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: it's like a second sun in the sky. I think
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: we could probably get around that.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Well. I mean, well, see, you're adding more costs to
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: the the person. We're not talking about just the freeway guys.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: We're talking about they work nights. We're talking about other
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: construction guys building in the buildings every I mean, you're
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: gonna make everybody else have to come in. Well, we
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: got to start at eight now because they won't change
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: the time to push it back to where we have
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: some light. You understand what I'm saying.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Well, it's still I mean at this point, what was
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: what was sunrise this morning? Like six oh five? So
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: let's let's move that ahead an hour so it's seven
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: oh five most construction crews or not.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: Let us go back. Why don't we just go back? Okay,
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: so we're gonna fall back, Why don't we just fall
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: back thirty minutes and everybody could be happy. I mean,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're you're a realtor, so you don't have
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: to punch in at a certain time.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: I'm always punched in.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: I'm always punching when my phone, when my phone rings
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: tonight at eleven o'clock by someone as saying that house
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: you got listed, I'm gonna answer at eleven o'clock. And
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: when the guy calls me tomorrow morning at five thirty,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: is he's having his breakfast before work.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's totally different, because then why because you're this
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: guy's calling you. Yes, you're gonna answer it, because you're
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: gonna go SI, You're gonna go back to bed, and
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: you're gonna go meet him the next day and whatever time,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: and that's when you're gonna do it. But other people
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: have to start at a certain time and they need
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: the daylight.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: And on January first, and on January first, in the
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: middle of winter, when somebody calls me up and goes, hey,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I want to see this house after work tomorrow night,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: and so that means six thirty seven o'clock that they
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: want to see a house in a crappy neighborhood. It's
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: an abandoned house.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: It's going to be just as dark.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to be in that crappy neighborhood, in
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: that abandoned house.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: What but see, you're not you're not there to do
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: work and work in the dark.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, yeah, I'm still working out like Tony,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: I need to see the house.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: I need to see the house. It's dark, it's dark,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: it's cold. It is what it is. But that's part
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: that the house.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: You're not doing it in working, You're not doing it.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, that that work. You're right, that work is far
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: that work is far more important than mine, Tony. I
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: still need that is my job. I still need to
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: see the house. I still need to know what the
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: shape of the house, the condition of the house is.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: But it's my job. And just because I would rather
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: do it in the light does not mean I'm in
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: favor of moving the clock back five hours so it'll
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: still be light at seven o'clock in the evening on
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: January first. That's my point. You do what you have
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: to do as you have to do it. You can't
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: keep accommodating that.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: About What about all those people that need to sleep
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: during the day.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: We should move the clock so it's dark and the
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: sunlight coming through their windows doesn't keep them up during
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: the day because they work third shift. Everybody's got their story, man,
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: everybody's got their life. Time is time. You measure time
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: with reality, not with hopes and wishes and dreams.
