    I was never really on the fence - I've always have had a preference for no DLS (I've lived with it for 19 years and with out for about 20, so I like to think I'm making an informed choice), but if it were to be voted in - in the grand scheme that is my life, it wouldn't really make that much of an impact....

    I have a sneaking suspicion that Neo Girl doesn't have her own kids but may be in a position to know the effect on kids

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White

    Having DLS in WA is supported by Kieran Longbottom..

    WA sporting identities throw weight behind daylight savings
    Chris Robinson
    May 06, 2009 03:00pm

    WA sports stars have joined forces in a show of support for daylight saving ahead of next weekend's referendum.

    West Coast Eagles skipper Darren Glass led a cross-section of players from the state’s most prominent sporting codes to rally support for daylight saving.

    West Coast Fever pair Bianca Franklin and Caitlin Bassett, Perth Glory captain Jamie Coyne, Warriors spinner Josh Mangan and Force prop Kieran Longbottom joined the Eagles defender in championing the ‘yes’ vote.

    the rest here....http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/stor...6-2761,00.html



    Also: If sport's a big part of your life...
    06/05/2009

    Perth Glory's Jamie Coyne and the Western Force's Kieran Longbottom said daylight saving helped with jetlag during their season.

    "The less you can get that time difference down the better," said Longbottom.

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    I'd guess that it won't sway anyone who already made up their mind but I'm sure there are many undecided voters out there. For those who really don't care one way or another a sports figure certainly could influence some voters.

    It could be what pushes the yes votes over the top.
