Ruth Gregory Posts: 3007 Joined: 25th Jul 2007 Location: USA	Posted at 01:08 on 29th September 2008 Yep, we're in mountain, but in the summer the Pacific zone pushes the clocks ahead an hour for daylight savings time. Since we don't observe it, when you push ahead an hour, you're then on the same time as us. In the winter, we're an hour ahead of you. I think the wisdom of us not changing our clocks is that we would rather have the extra hour of daylight in the cool of the morning instead of evening during the summer. Consequently, it's light here by 4:30 in the summer.

Can't see the point of it personally, it just makes its darker in the afternoon earlier instead of the morning. Or is that the wrong way round?? lol It's all just too confusing!
