Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's clearly a complex issue. I didn't realize that Eastern and Central were so much bigger than Mountain and Pacific, honestly. Central is crazy across the southern US.

Normally I don't mind the change so much but it's kicking my ass this fall for some reason. I don't actually live in Detroit, I just know it's one of the more extreme examples like El Paso (but they just want to stick with the rest of TX anyway). I live in CO and wake up early; Looking at Fig1 it's obvious that I would like it abolished but most here would like it permanent. lol, poor Utah.

I dunno, the majority of people seem to want permanent, I know CO has a law saying as soon as Congress allows it we're going to stay on DST. So it's coming, but I don't have to like it.

Fuck DST.

I just realized that El Paso is actually in MST. They must have hated it so bad not to stick with the rest of Texas. But whoever lives in the farthest point west but still in CST is being screwed. Same with EST.

Funny the section of Texas that is in MST is three tiny blocks, basically the same width as all of Michigan. Texas is big lol.

Michigan should probably move to CST

When I think of Colorado I think of it being way north. You could live in Colorado and be as north as someone living in Raleigh NC almost. That's wild.

Yeah Colorado seems to appear to be all up to preference on the choices. It's at the start of a time zone. People on the east lean towards permanent MDT, People on the west lean towards permanent MST.

Im guessing that you live towards the west side. Yet if most people around you seem to want it, then maybe you live on east side lol
