What's this?

I do NOT want to stay on DST unless the rest of the country does it as well

this is ridiculous on so many levels. I can't imagine waiting until 9pm for prime time Hokie games and it makes west coast games all but unwatchable. Never mind the hassle of flying from here to anywhere, or scheduling meetings at work. Get rid of DST totally or get rid or ST totally but having Florida ONLY is absurd. I know the NE and TX and a few other states are looking at it as well.

Thankfully I believe this will end in congress.
