I was watching the CBS Morning Show this am and I learned some interesting things about DST. They profiled a town that is literally split in half by the Indiana/Ohio state line, College Park is the name I think. Apparently 77 counties in Indiana do not subscribe to daylight savings time. The town operates on 2 different times. The local school is split by the state line and has 2 doors, one labeled Indiana and the other, Ohio. The school operates on Ohio time, DST. They showed one family where they all wear 2 watches because their mother works in Indiana and can't follow DST but the children's school does. All the stores post what time they are following, some open early for farmers, others like the local bar, stay open later.
Can you imagine that? Isn't it strange!?
They also noted that 47 states participate in Daylight Savings Time. I know Arizona is one and apparently most of Indiana. I don't know what the other is...
I think we have members from Indiana (Lizbud I think?) I wonder if they have any experience with this.....
