Default Speaking of adjusting...

Many years ago I went to college in Iowa. I flew from Boston to Chicago, then took a train to Iowa. Chicago is in the Eastern Time Zone, but the train very quickly passed into the Central Time Zone, so time changed. Also, along the train route, several of the counties that the train passed through were "dry counties". Furthermore, the train itself had a regulation of only 1 alcoholic container per person at a time. So, with the combination of time changes, "dry counties", and limits on drinks, the conductors had a very difficult time of serving drinks and staying within the laws of each jurisdiction.
