ARRL teaches hams to tell time...

[Tom Azlin W7SUA]

Yea, here in Arizona we want to have less evening Sun!  Makes evenings 
more enjoyable. Still a couple members of the AZ legislature proposed 
putting us on MDT and got blown out of the water by their own party 
members. So it was a "never mind" moment that was pretty funny.

and I have read as much saying going on daylight savings time actually 
cost more and does not save any thing.
