I want us to go in the direction Canada is going with that. It should be the same time in Washington and Oregon that it is in BC

Canada uses metric time though, I think. So, that wouldn't work.

Nah they're only half metricated. They use metric kilometers, but imperial hours, this creates the uniquely Canadian variant of kph

Us law doesn't allow for that. Washington and oreagon could go year round standard time anytime they feel like it.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
