Those of us who have not yet gone off DST need to be aware that Booklikes has. I was trying to publish a post and finally figured out that I need to set the time to an hour earlier than it is here.

I had noticed that my post times were off recently. I wondered whether booklikes was following the old DST rules?
DST ended in (continental) Europe yesterday.
I probably should have said the old DST rules for North America.
I personally would be very happy if DST were to be abolished, since I am not a morning person. But I know people who like it. It does get complicated though when different locations follow different schedules.
So would I. Just pick a time and stick to it. Parts of the year are going to be dark anyway, and people can always keep summer vs. winter hours.
Don't have DST in AZ

A very sensible attitude. Saskatchewan's out to, iirc.
We have DST here in AU (except for Queensland) and we change over earlier than everyone else. So I've just gotten used to the time's never matching up here. Plus we switch over TO DST when the rest of the world is switching BACK from DST. So for a few weeks each year, my mom in NA, my BFF in EU and myself are all a big fat time zone mess. :P

I guess someone thinks we have enough daylight in AZ in the summer and we don't need to save any more.

HA HA HA HA.

(We have a partly cloudy 84 right now, at 3:30ish p.m.)
Yeah, we were mid-high 80s most of this week.
Fun facts about Az DST!
