Gonna be lots of fun when the three West Coast states go on "full time
summer time" (which the FCC wisely called "Advanced Time" in licensing
schedules for AM stations because no one could find where the Daylight
was being stored....). Then we will have WA, OR, CA, and AZ on GMT-7
year round, the rest of the Mountain Time Zone on GMT-7/GMT-6, and the
Pacific Time Zone will be only a memory because nobody will be on GMT-8
- at least in the USA, that is.  I don't know what Canada and Mexico
will do.  Don't need a degree in engineering, an accounting degree will
do.  I thought that year-round GMT-8 made more sense for the Pacific
Time Zone, but no one asked me.  What the heck, they're only numbers on
a clock.....
