Indiana time zone

Hey everyone... there is a petition going around to put Indiana back on central time. There are many good reasons we should be on CST. Please visit this website and sign the petition. http://www.hoosiersforcentraltime.com

The official sunrise today in Indianapolis was 6:22. I don't need the sun coming up at 5:22.

One vote for Daylight Savings Time.

Used to hate getting there one hour too early and leaving a hour later. Put the whole state on the same time, No matter which it is. Sheesh.

I totally agree; I am a member of the organization that is promoting this, but haven't been active. My own highly unofficial sampling of opinion of race fans seems to favor Central time.

Think you misunderstood. We are already on Daylight Savings Time, but most of the state observes Eastern time while a minority observes Central time. Geographically, Indiana is a Central state, not an Eastern one.

I bet if you did this at a golf course you would get 0 signatures. I know who cares about golfers but I bet the golf courses would fight as hard against a change as race fans fight for it.

I live in Indiana and work in Ohio. Gotta be working by 5:30 am... Thats early enough for me. 1 vote to keep EST.

You are right. I think golfers are the only reason it was done. I already signed one. I miss racing under the lights. Do we really need it daylight at 9:30 at night? In this heat wave it makes the hottest part of the day around 6 o clock. If your on this site you should be against it.
