I prefer when it gets dark later but I wish they pick either one and leave it alone.

Let's just get rid of time zones completely in the USA. Everyone knows what time it is when you get off the plane or scheduling meetings.

If it's 6pm it could be night time in the east coast and bright and sunny in left coast.

Anyone that prefers more daylight in the morning than the evening is crazy. I don't give a crap if it is sunny or not when I'm driving to work.

Daylight savings time gives you more light in the evening. I just wish we would stick to one or the other.

The Horton lady is trying to get shite done, it's a shame the crooked politicians stopped her on the auto insurance scam in this state.

I think about this every now and then. There may be some snag that I am not thinking about, but I think it would make things simpler. You keep time zones, but they would just be used as suggestions for when standard things would start. For instance, banks open on the east coast at 9 am. Banks open in central time at 10 am. It would be a bit of a transition for either the west coast or east coast depending on which one keeps their normal times, but you would no longer have the confusion of changing time zones for travel or meeting times.

I've thought about it for the entire earth, but I don't believe we have a clean 24 time zones that are 1 hour apart.
