Well, no, unless you live in Indiana, where it apparently depends on 
street address.  I actually have done rocket science during Apollo, and 
I'll take that over street addresses anytime.  Last I heard, they are 
going to do DST statewide but left it up to some legislature to 
determine the new boundary between EST and CST.  I won't hold my breath 
for that action.  Hawaii is easy ... no DST.  I think AZ is similar if 
not the same.

Where does all the "saved" daylight actually go?  It was light when I 
got up, and dark around dinner at 1730 last week.  Now it's dark when I 
get up and light until I get the dishes washed.

I wasn't aware that WWV ever sent DST stuff ... thought it was 
programmed into some but not all of the "atomic" clocks.  My "Atomic 
Clock" is on UTC in my shack, so it doesn't care, although it keeps 
pretty good time -- within about 3 sec.  Wonder what chaos could be 
caused if UTC went to DST?
