I like daylight savings too, because I like listening to people bitch about it.

I like daylight savings.  Gives another point of semi-regularity to my year.

But is the time change even needed?  What purpose does it really serve?  There are lots of stories about it rooted in wartime/economy etc. But these things do not seem to be valid anymore.  And are they worth the collective cost?

I have to say I prefer light later in the day though.

Agreed.  I do like the petition's approach: simply no time shifting during the year.  Whether it stays DST all year long (my preference) or "standard time" is to be decided.
