	Insert critical MovieDynamic comment here

	Ugh, I think I did the worst on this one out of all the time zone quizzes, and this is where I live. Freakin' California stealing the show.

	This quiz AKA: Name the largest cities in California and throw in a few token Wash., Ore., Nev.

	13 of the cities are in the Los Angeles-San Diego area, compared with only 8 cities in Nevada/Washington/Oregon.

	As Geo-Crazy noted, only eight of these cities are outside California - but the real surprise is, half of those are in Nevada and only one is in Oregon.

	Nuts... Would have had 4 more if I had remembered Nevada was Pacific.

	Maybe if I knew more suburb cities of Los Angeles. Great Quiz!

	Brilliant quiz, I have absolutely no criticisms!

	This is real: My computer froze at the last second. I wrote the answers down on a piece of paper then at the last answer I wrote down ,the computer became unfrozen.

	North Las Vegas. NICE

	Only three of these cities are in L.A. County. There's actually more (four) in Orange County. Two in San Diego, two in Riverside, and one city per county for the rest, except for three in Clark County, Nevada.

	If you brought the bar down to cities of 100,000 or above, though, you'd get a huge influx of L.A. County cities, like at least 15.

	Ughh, I kept trying to spell Tacoma, Wa as "Takoma," like the D.C. neighborhood.

	@larry: Arizona may follow the Pacific Daylight TIME, but it is still a part of the Mountain Time ZONE. Sporcle 1, Larry 0 (maybe you have come out on top with other sporcle battles, if so my bad.)

	@larry: Sorry, but as motherboyXXX noted, Arizona is in the Mountain Time Zone; however, it largely doesn't observe Daylight Savings Time--the Arizona section of the Navajo Indian reservation does follow DST. (Incidentally, DST is now observed from mid-March to mid-November which means it's 8 months, not 6--but I digress.)

	Damn...how could I forget Bakersfield, where Ben Richards brutally puts down a food riot in 2019. That Butcher.

	You can't forget Tacoma, Washington. That's where Tom Tuttle is from!

	SporcleAdmin: you spelled Sacagawea wrong on the description

	catcherj:	Apr 26th, 2010 at 20:52 GMT	2 points
	I completetely forgot that Nevada was on Pacific Time. Groan.

	It's interesting that only one capital city is here.

	Feel pretty stupid that most of these are where I live: Socal. :P

	@adamnvillani: Hate to be "that guy," but don't forget about Alameda County. Within it are both Oakland (a beautiful, majestic city) and Fremont (a disgusting craphole).

	Check the setting for Spokane, I typed it multiple times and it didn't come up.

	BonerJamz-- you're right about Alameda County. Mea culpa.

	North Las Vegas is considered separate from Las Vegas?
