Lynn Willis: I didn't know that - thanks. But MacKinnon must be OK with it too and she started the whole thing didn't she? Personally I could go along with your concept but I think if this bill can get done I would be OK with it too. At least it would end the clock changing. I agree that it gets a bit absurd out in western Alaska and I would rather see them have their own self-determination. Like many, I am OK with moving an hour closer to the continental US and staying 2 hours ahead of solar time year-round. The stupid clock is a man-made contrivance anyway.
