We here in Indiana don't have daylight savings time.

For some reason, your farmers believed that your clocks should remain synchronized with their cows' milking schedule.
I like to think Indianans are better educated than that now.
But I have come to believe that you do it now just to aggravate the rest of us.
That's OK. In a way, it's one of the more visible vestiges of a time when we had 10th Amendment state's rights.
Despite the inconvenience, I urge you to continue to hold out, as a matter of principle.

I hate so-called savings time.

ALL "conervatives" should hate it.

Twice a year, our normal daily schedule of sleeping and awakening is disrupted.

I happen to like to observe the natural progression of daylight and night as registered against my timepiece.

I hate that day in October, and that day in April when I am told to "fall back" or "spring forward" Or vice versa.
