Who Changed the Clocks on Me?

Found this......Arizona (except some Indian Reservations), Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and American Samoa have chosen not to observe Daylight Saving Time......here http://geography.about.com/cs/daylightsavings/a/dst.htm .

Actually, this is real time now.

There is one place in the United States that still observes a half-hour offset time zone.

Can anyone identify that place?

 

[AzPete]

Des Moines, Iowa......

 

[Midlife]

Not Des Moines, but it certainly could be considered off-center!

Areas bordering the continental divide. Half the time flows towards the PST and half flows to the MST.

You guys aren't even close.

A hint: the place is the size of a couple of acres at most, and is definitely inside the United States of America.

Washington DC? They are also of center just a bit.....

 

[Midlife]

No, not located in Washington, DC.

The Aleutian Islands? Grasping at straws over here....

OK...none of you are even close, and I'm surprised that our Veterans didn't know this.

The only location in the US that still maintains a 1/2 hour time zone is the Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor. Hawaii, at the start of WWII, was on a 1/2 hour time zone.

I see no reference to that in their visiting info......seems like it would be mentioned for visitors info. Interesting.
