Yeah, but Indiana is a good case study for why daylight savings time isn’t very effective. Didn’t they end up using more energy after switching to DST? I mean, they really changed because the show The West Wing had an entire episode about it, and nominally it was to keep in better sync with the East Coast. But they were able to measure actual energy changes as opposed to the theoretical benefits that are normally cited for DST.

(I lived in Indiana at the time they switched to observing DST, but I was on team central time zone)

Would that mean Indiana goes back to the way they were before they started doing Daylight Savings Time?

Why would switching time zones F you? Your neighbors are in Central time, what's keeping you in Eastern?

I should have used more words to express my opinion. I completely support Indiana and Michigan switching to central time. Part of Indiana is already CST because it's basically an extension of Chicago. I assume the rest of Indiana is EST as a relic of railroad scheduling and our proximity to Detroit.

We're going to spring forward and, where I live, it'll be daytime until 10pm. It'd be nice if Indiana just went ahead and committed to CST. I can't imagine what it's like living on the upper peninsula of Michigan and still being EST.
