Doing fine on lamp oil now. And it's just a frustration for a lot of folks to do time change. So I've been very supportive of this. Glad the House took it up.

Now we're trying to push on the Senate to be able to take up what the House just done, just finished. And so we can just kill the time change issue forever. (03:58–04:03)
