Eli, Thanks for the information.

Richard,
I too was raised in Indiana. Grew up in West Lafayette, home of Purdue University. :)

Close enough to Illinois to realise that DLS time was rubbish. Can't stand it even though I have had to live with it for the past 10 plus years.


I would love for the government to get smart and stop this pointless exercise. Like I said earlier, once upon a time it might have saved businesses money but now it is a worthless anachronism.


Brian.

Brian . . . don't know for certain currently - but Mr. Poor used to 'hail from PA'

As a beginning school kid in Maine, I soon came to realize that the more North one lives, the much more pronounced & longer the nights became - - - with or w/o Daylight Time!

I agree - - it has "outlived" it's intent, now. Should be 'dropped' in the 48 that still do it.
