Only if you move the blanket. If left in same position, it would indeed lose a foot on one end and gain on the other.

Now explain why AZ is the only state that doesn't understand this. :stupid

And they get up an hour earlier too, of course on days you want to sleep in. :D

Changing the hours, DST, is supposed to reduce the amount of electricity that business use. :stupid

I don't mind changing the watch going to Hawaii. Two years ago there was three states that hadn't changed. Indiana and AZ were two but I don't remember the 3rd. AZ is the last holdout in the continental states though.

Seems to me that part of Wisconson doesn't change. A few of us were talking about it the other day and I don't remember for sure.

Hawaii isn't part of the continent. Somebody moved it out in the middle of the ocean. It was before my time but I thought you might remember. :D

I am not a fan of DST, leave time alone and deal with it.
I wonder in the old days, did they turn their sundials the compensated hour?  Or what about the hour glass?  Who was timing the delay to turn the glass over after one hour if you did not have another hour glass?  :)
