 605 # From Arthur David Olson (2011-02-09):
 606 # I just spoke by phone with a staff member at the Metlakatla Indian
 607 # Community office (using contact information available at
 608 # http://www.commerce.state.ak.us/dca/commdb/CIS.cfm?Comm_Boro_name=Metlakatla
 609 # It's shortly after 1:00 here on the east coast of the United States;
 610 # the staffer said it was shortly after 10:00 there. When I asked whether
 611 # that meant they were on Pacific time, they said no - they were on their
 612 # own time. I asked about daylight saving; they said it wasn't used. I
 613 # did not inquire about practices in the past.
 614 
 615 # From Arthur David Olson (2011-08-17):
 616 # For lack of better information, assume that Metlakatla's
 617 # abandonment of use of daylight saving resulted from the 1983 vote.
 618 
 619 # From Steffen Thorsen (2015-11-09):
 620 # It seems Metlakatla did go off PST on Sunday, November 1, changing
 621 # their time to AKST and are going to follow Alaska's DST, switching
 622 # between AKST and AKDT from now on....

 810 #
 811 # From Paul Eggert (2007-08-17):
 812 # Since 1970, most of Indiana has been like America/Indiana/Indianapolis,
 813 # with the following exceptions:
 814 #
 815 # - Gibson, Jasper, Lake, LaPorte, Newton, Porter, Posey, Spencer,
 816 #   Vanderburgh, and Warrick counties have been like America/Chicago.
 817 #
 818 # - Dearborn and Ohio counties have been like America/New_York.
 819 #
 820 # - Clark, Floyd, and Harrison counties have been like
 821 #   America/Kentucky/Louisville.
 822 #
 823 # - Crawford, Daviess, Dubois, Knox, Martin, Perry, Pike, Pulaski, Starke,
 824 #   and Switzerland counties have their own time zone histories as noted below.
 825 #
 826 # Shanks partitioned Indiana into 345 regions, each with its own time history,
 827 # and wrote "Even newspaper reports present contradictory information."
 828 # Those Hoosiers!  Such a flighty and changeable people!
 829 # Fortunately, most of the complexity occurred before our cutoff date of 1970.

 626 # The Metlakatla community in Alaska has decided not to change its

 833 # From Paul Eggert (2018-11-30):
 834 # A brief but entertaining history of time in Indiana describes a 1949 debate
 835 # in the Indiana House where city legislators (who favored "fast time")
 836 # tussled with farm legislators (who didn't) over a bill to outlaw DST:
 837 #  "Lacking enough votes, the city faction tries to filibuster until time runs
 838 #   out on the session at midnight, but rural champion Rep. Herbert Copeland,
 839 #   R-Madison, leans over the gallery railing and forces the official clock
 840 #   back to 9 p.m., breaking it in the process.  The clock sticks on 9 as the
 841 #   debate rages on into the night.  The filibuster finally dies out and the
 842 #   bill passes, while outside the chamber, clocks read 3:30 a.m.  In the end,
 843 #   it doesn't matter which side won.  The law has no enforcement powers and
 844 #   is simply ignored by fast-time communities."
 845 # How Indiana went from 'God's time' to split zones and daylight-saving.

 849 # From Paul Eggert (2007-08-17):
 850 # Since 1970, most of Indiana has been like America/Indiana/Indianapolis,
 851 # with the following exceptions:
 852 #
 853 # - Gibson, Jasper, Lake, LaPorte, Newton, Porter, Posey, Spencer,
 854 #   Vanderburgh, and Warrick counties have been like America/Chicago.
 855 #
 856 # - Dearborn and Ohio counties have been like America/New_York.
 857 #
 858 # - Clark, Floyd, and Harrison counties have been like
 859 #   America/Kentucky/Louisville.
 860 #
 861 # - Crawford, Daviess, Dubois, Knox, Martin, Perry, Pike, Pulaski, Starke,
 862 #   and Switzerland counties have their own time zone histories as noted below.
 863 #
 864 # Shanks partitioned Indiana into 345 regions, each with its own time history,
 865 # and wrote "Even newspaper reports present contradictory information."
 866 # Those Hoosiers!  Such a flighty and changeable people!
 867 # Fortunately, most of the complexity occurred before our cutoff date of 1970.
