Sun. Mar. 10, 2019 – survived the time change…

73F and 87%RH

Slept late. Looks later due to time change and that this blog runs on Eastern time.

While the DST change is inconvenient, and might not make sense everywhere, it does make sense in most places. I lived in Arizona where we didn’t change and it was a bit of a pain.

Time ZONES are an interesting story, mostly the fault/effort of one man. When you look at the jagged and strange edges of the zones they don’t make sense. But when you know that they encompassed the end point for one of the different railroads, suddenly it does make sense. Just one of the ways infrastructure and forgotten decisions continue to influence us decades later.

(agreed that animals don’t understand time changes. I was gonna lead with that observation, but it got covered yesterday…)
