BTW Rick.... How many US states have two or more time zones? Thirteen. "Oregon and Idaho are split between the Mountain and Pacific time zones. Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, North and South Dakota are divided between Central and Mountain time zones. Florida, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee are split between Eastern and Central time zones. Also, Alaska is split between the Alaska time zone and the Hawaii-Aleutian time zone."
Tom please, enough already. Bottom line is that New York (where I live) and Pennsylvania (where Steve lives) has the same time zone. Put it to bed now.
I'm only illustrating to you that even within the same state...2 adjacent towns can be in different time zones. Don't be so defensive.
But that is not the case here now is it? And DEFENSIVE.....no, More amused then anything. Have a good night Tom.
I enjoy this banter, sorry Rick no offense, but- My Paternal Grandparents lived on the Western Edge of Kansas, where they were on Rocky Mt. Time, behind their Kids/Families, but 10-20 Mins down the road; but were on Central Time, thus: a ten minute drive turned into a hours drive....... I don't know why this convo got me to thinking of similar oddities, hard to believe, at times. Where there is an invisible border of time, state lines, and other lines beyond sanity and madness......I've literally seen it rain on one side of the streets, and not on the other. Did so in this area numerous times, in Lake Charles numerous times, in Perry, GA., many times, and so on.........in Wichita, KS et al......
thanks Rob...this was my point. I was just trying to point out that time zone border are pretty funky, and many cases where his Flushing to Pennsyltucky analogy are in fact separate timezones. Arizona used to be in CA timezone until they opted out of the daylight savings adjustment. Now they split time between pacific and mountain...now that is weird.
