Me too! I don't see any advantage to moving the clock around.

I have to agree with the earlier comment....I wish they would leave time alone. It really messes with everyones body schedule. BUT I do enjoy the extra hour in the fall.......except it comes back to bite us in the spring. :-(

Usually I am all for fall time change (but dread the spring)... now that I have kids it's totally different. DD will now be waking up 5:30/6 AM instead of 6:30/7 AM. Greeeeaaaat!

A couple parts of AZ do change - if I remember correctly one or two of the reservations? We used to live there when I was younger and I remember my parents always having to think before calling people to make sure it wasn't too early/late based on DST.

I have a clock that sets itself, supposedly through the electricity. It's several years old and does the daylight savings times automatically. Well last Sunday, it set itself back (old daylight savings time). I woke up my niece with only 1/2 hour to bathe, dress, and get to work instead of one and one half hours. She was very nice about it. Whe realized it when she got up and look at another clock and got there in a dead run.

Thank you so much for the information. We were wondering when this happens.

I totally agree. I guess we could move to Arizona. I don't think they change.
True - we don't change in AZ. But, I do have to re-calibrate myself to what time it is in the other states where all my relatives live!!

Arizona never changes the clocks. It's always 5 :00 somewhere :-D The far northeastern Navajo nations is the only part of Az that changes time and they follow NM time change
