But the increase in heart-attacks and accidents of all kinds aren't caused
by the earlier (by the sun) hours. They're caused by the sudden drastic
schedule-change at "spring-forward" time, a change that people can't adjust
to, even throughout the whole DST part of the year.

It isn't surprising that evening crime is reduced when the clocks are set
ahead, because it doesn't get dark as clock-early.

Those are good reasons to keep advanced-time (DST, Summer-time) all year.
