Don't forget, Hawaii does not observe DST either.

You do realize if that happened the Sun would set at 4:24 in the afternoon at the Winter Solstice?

No thanks. This is not northern Maine.

While we're at it, why don't we eliminate daylight altogether .

And I've lived with DST in various places most of my life and think it's stupid, confusing and unhealthy and largely designed to increase commerce, not human health. Real is better.
In AZ and NM, DST would be disaster, and Climacus' idea of a reverse DST for the summer is a neat idea!

LOL

I never had any problems with the time when I lived in AZ either. It was everyone else who did.

Well Arizona isn't called the Maverick State for nothing. I'm happy Arizona doesn't follow DST. I see every other state get messed up on DST. Least I don't have to worry about does my clock move forwards, or backwards.
