Makes a nice change. Seems they'll go for "pilot error" if at all possible.

There's a name for that: Pareidolia.

Those Fords are somewhat thug-like, aren't they?

I don't recall noticing Michkov at all. Zegras, however ...

So, between Eastern and Atlantic, then. What to call it?

Looks like it would be necessary to add one. We're lucky out here. Our zone turns out to be very close to 15 degrees. If you go on permanent DST then the people in the western portion of your zone will find it staying dark until late in the morning, won't they?
