Nobody likes to "fall back" and have it get dark earlier but unless you stay on DST it happens that way. I seem to remember that back in the 70's they did keep DST year round for a while.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15078815.post-79115090590050745372014-02-04T11:17:35.645-05:002014-02-04T11:17:35.645-05:00Had a roommate who grew up on a farm in Central In...Had a roommate who grew up on a farm in Central Indiana when the state was split between Central and Eastern time and, as I recall, counties could exempt themselves from DST.

Trying to keep track of the time to deal with customers in different time zones is hard enough. Imagine what it would be like to be only one state in the area that is basically in a different time zone. <br /><br />Arizona and Hawaii are the only states that doesn't recognize daylight savings time. <br /><br />I say no. This, to me, is just another topic Tennessee legislatures address to waste time.<br />Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10341249918236201964noreply@blogger.com
