I had the most difficulty with this assignment. I started looking at articles on the site Thursday, and found the comments and replies disjointed and confusing. Many of the references are clearly technical or inside info/jokes. In many cases, they didn't even seem to have anything to do with the original post. I finally found one that seemed interesting, and below is my post. Because the original post on this was from 10/23, I don't know if I will receive a response or get rated up. I doubt I will ever go to this site again, as it really doesn't seem to have a lot of relevance for me.

I also grew up in Arizona. My family moved to Northern California (Napa) for 10 years, and when we came back, I didn't miss DST at all! (No offense Californians, but I don't miss CA either - earthquakes, twisty narrow roads, and the constant rain!) We don't need DST in Arizona. I can't imagine what it would be like to 'Spring Forward', and have sundown moved to even later. In the summer, the overnight low sometimes doesn't get below 90 degrees. I would not want to go to bed at 10:00 with the sun just going down and the temp at over 100. Don't get me wrong, I love hot weather and HATE the cold. This is my home, and not having DST is another great reason to stay here.
