Indiana counties wanting to change their time zones have until Sept. 16 to ask the US Dept. of Transportation to hold hearings to switch time zones. I thought I'd look to see which way their leaning. Early returns suggest a preference for Eastern time, as one might expect. None of these results are official yet, so this won't yet affect the tz data, but: Allen County residents prefer Eastern, 65%-35%. <http://www.fortwayne.com/mld/fortwayne/news/local/12413842.htm> Wabash Valley viewers prefer Eastern to Central Time, 58%-42%. <http://www.wthitv.com/newsdet.asp?id=9444> Perry County's commissioners opt for Central time, but Dubios County looks like it may stick with Eastern time. <http://www.perrycountynews.com/articles/2005/08/18/top_story/t1.txt> And, my personal favorite: Bartholomew County's commissioners have decided that it will join whatever time zone its northern neighbor Marion County chooses, regardless of public opinion. <http://www.wabashplaindealer.com/articles/2005/08/16/state_news/state3.txt>
