Over the Michigan Dateline?

[etat]

It doesn't bother me, not one bit at all.  I don't get on roofs with ice on em, I'll wait til it melts.  I don't like to get on roofs before the dew dries, though I do sometimes, especially on tearoffs.  I don't like to be on em when it gets too hot so in the summertime I like to start at or just before daylight.  Sometimes before. Of course there are always exceptions depending on the situation.  I just go with the flow and do what I have to do.  But not because the clock changes forward or backward.

I don't like changing the clocks either. I tell the people in town to get out of bed when the sun comes up, if not before. Back when we milked it took about two weeks to adjust the milking time with the cows.

A year or so ago one of the local papers did a "man on the street interview" story about daylight savings time. There were a number of folks who thought that it was instituted for the farmers, as there would be one more hour of sunlight every day to grow crops.

As I stated earlier we do not change but since I am only 2 miles from Ohio and 6 miles from Michigan, both of which do change, I am familiar with all of the controversy.  The more or less accepted viewpoint around here is that it gives the retail people one more hour of daylight to peddle their wares or it might just give the establishment people more play time.

There are a bunch of things Indiana gets a bit wrong.  Timezones ain't one of them.  Besides I kinda of like it when I set up a new computer and all the timezones are listed-and then there is Indiana time - appropriate I think!
I think we would all be better off if we started the day when the sun comes up and eneded it when the sun goes down.  I really sleep well during the winter months
