What do the Navajo do with all that saved daylight? We could use some here in Michigan...

Took me awhile to run around in the middle of the night and reset all of the analog clocks in the house!

Too bad the dog doesn't have a "DST/CST" setting...got up and growled at me to take him for a walk at 5:30 AM

Having been born and raised in Phoenix, I can unequivocally state that they do not need to save daylight. There is plenty of it enough already on those 117 degree days.

We were given the choice county by county of Eastern or central time. The region (near chicago) chose Central time. I think some counties in the toe of the boot may have also (SW corner). The rest of us are on New York time.

And we do DST in summer but not in winter.

Well, thanks for clearing that up!

Now I understand it even less.

I saw a good joke about this.

Only could a politician think if you cut a foot off the top of a blanket and sewed it to the bottom of a blanket, that you would somehow have a longer blanket.
