There is no California law that requires people to set their clocks back on November 6th.

Correct. I lived in Columbus, GA for four years. Five miles west, over the river, Phenix City, AL was technically on Central Time. The Post Offices obeyed that, but nobody wlse did, because most people in the area lived on Columbus' ET, as Columbus is 20 times the size of Phenix City.

I live one mile inside Central Time Zone and walking around in my house my phone will change time. Very annoying.

Was just down there judging a retriever hunting test in Phenix City (the Wickedest Little City in America).

Everybody in AL refers to it as "River Time." Both banks of the Chattahoochee all the way down to Eufaula.

I was a Navy recruiter in that area for a couple of years on the Alabama side. Part of my territory was Phenix City north to Lanett. Many people worked at the Pepperell mills which operated on Georgia time. I always had to make sure which time zone we were talking about when making appointments. Most people who lived on the state lines were on Eastern time.
