In Arizona they did over turn it!

I never had to change a clock until I moved out of that state.

Subject: Re: DST Changes

I have to say that I'm stunned that this legislation never got
overturned, I really thought it would.  They've doinked around with DST
a lot of times, the last time it was extended was because of the BBQ
lobby, this time I saw an interview with the congressman that put it
forward and his lame, stuttering reason was "wouldn't it be nice to get
home from work and have it still be light out?".  Well, if that is the
argument, then have DST in the winter instead of the summer - oh
yea,they tried that and kids were going to school in the dark.  I
personally hate DST and now it's 3 weeks longer causing a huge expense
in the private sector for all kinds of devices and it is all on the whim
of some moron in congress.
