I just read an article in Yahoo News that said a few states are taking this seriously: the fact that D.S.T. does nothing positive, is a hindrance in most cases and is dis-approved of by most people in the country. Right now, I think it's just N.M. that ignores D.S.T. With any luck, there should be others along, shortly. I stopped turning my clocks backward and forward years ago.
It's kind of like if you had shifters that "re-set" themselves, where every third day, each gear number moves up one (3rd gear means 4th, etc.). Also, on random days, the streetlight color code changes: Red means go, etc).
