Steve,

Understand your frustration! They did try starting DST in February one year back in the 80s (I think). It bombed out in a hurry when all the parents in the country complained about sending their kids to school in the pitch dark at 8:00 o'clock in the morning. Doubt it they'll try that again.

Daylight time is the actual "standard" now, being in effect for nearly eight months a

and put EST on Atlantic Time, CST on Eastern, MST on Central and PST on Mountain, LEAVE THEM THERE 
and forget about "Daylight Saving Time"?  We're two-thirds of the way there already, and 
it would end the twice-yearly clock changing.

Unlikely as it seems (as it is still winter) Daylight Time starts tomorrow morning at 2 a.m. local time. Seems like it gets earlier every year. Don Kaskey
