The one thing that gets forgotten is that noon was picked based on highest sun point (for some latitude) which is fine until we start to have a generally accepted day as 8-5. Noon is no longer in the &lt;i&gt;middle&lt;/i&gt; of that day. It probably makes the most sense to just split the difference between EST and EDT and call it ENT (normalized) and never change again. This doesn&amp;#x27;t swing winter or summer days anymore than needs be but still gets rid of having to ever change again. The retailers get the biggest benefit of all the time DXT.</text><parent_chain><item><author>bhauer</author><text>Yes!
