No room for reforms eh ? Sounds like reforms are needed, because you two have sounded totally stressed out about having to deal with so much mail.

It's not that I can't comprehend. I just don't give a shit anymore.

So wouldn't it be better if somehow that stress and load was minimized through reforms and regulatory actions ?

You are fairly east in the eastern Time Zone. I live MUCH further north and west. I lived on the westernmost county in the eastern Time Zone. The next county where I worked was Central time. Also, the county due south was Central. Your being south helps it get dark earlier too.

The days are longer further north in summer. Ever hear land of the midnight sun? I once visited Seattle and the sun rose in the summer about 4:45 am. That really sucked when my granddaughter wanted to play when she woke up and I had been in bed about 2 hours after picking up her Dad at work.

The furthest Eastern point in the USA is Semisopochnoi Island, yet it's time zone is different to the likes of Maine.
