Thank you Zeener and thank you Jackie. As it turns out I did get home from my trip in time to vote and I definitely wanted to vote for Sam. I love Hobbes but Samwise is the ultimate sidekick.

OK, I know what they mean. But it still annoys me. Just use PT (or ET, CT, MT) if the whole DST thing confuses you. One less letter to type anyway.

Both Hobbes and Sam would use the proper abbreviation.
I just returned (2.5 hours ago) from a trip to Madera Canyon in extreme southern Arizona, where we had no internet and no cell phone service. Arizona is always on PST. For part of the year their clocks are set to the same time as ours here in New Mexico. Currently they are one hour behind us.
