Audible typically will ping you CC to make sure they get their money if you forgot to cancel. I use a prepaid card for this.

I thought Georgia went back on standard time when the rest of the country did?

I can't keep them straight, either, Apache.

As far as the change being made by the rest of the country is concerned, I know that that was a joke, issybird. But some parts of the country _don't_ ever change--Indiana is one tha quickly comes to mind. Great idea in my opinion; maybe Mike Pence will convince Trump to change the "rest of the country (back)".

Indiana has two time zones and they both go on Daylight Saving. The only exceptions in the 50 states are Arizona and Hawaii.

Ahhhh . . . I knew that Indiana has some kind of time thingie, of course; I was going by (faulty) memory when I said that it was the EST/EDT thing.

End of my posts on this topic.

And until the Indiana Senate made it mandatory in 2005, some cities and counties refused to follow daylight savings time. Indianapolis was one such. So part of the year it was on Eastern time and part of the year it was on Central Time. I used to work for a company that was based in Indianapolis and it could get confusing at times.

What's missing from the time zone thingie is:

ABT = audio book time

While it may be EST or PST or GMT where you're at, for me it's always ABT
