You're right, that should have been "fall back from 2:00 AM EST to 1:00 AM CST, then again from 2:00 AM CST to 1:00 AM CDT". Sorry about that. From the final DOT ruling (posted earlier) it appears as though that is in fact the correct behavior, too, as odd as it is. Deborah On Jan 18, 2006, at 5:38 PM, Paul Schauble wrote:

Since this is in the spring, shouldn't that last change be from 2AM CST to 3AM CDT?

<snip> assuming I'm interpreting everything correctly. The DOT doesn't specify whether Starke county switch to Central Time at the appropriate time for its old or new time zone, but I'm assuming the old here. That leads to it falling back from 2:00AM EST to 1:00AM CST, and then again from 2:00AM CST to 1:00AM CST. If that makes people nervous, then the transition would need to be at 3:00 AM.
