Why does it have to be turned @ 2:00am and not any other time? Is there any specific reason?

I know the ACT & Requirement.

My Question was - Why does it have to be @ 2:00am only? Why not at 1:00am or 3:00am or 4 or 5 ... ... ? There must be some reason and that is what I want to undestand.

I have tried expolring & will keep on doing (whenever I find time) but I thought why not to post it here as well ... CD Citizens are pretty Knowledgeable

When it is Mid night in the Central Zone, it is 02:00 hrs in the Eastern. It is 22:00 Hrs in the Pacific.

So, Taking the Central Zone as the median, We change the clocks at midnight in the Central Zone. That way the whole country changes the time and synchronise the clocks at that particular time and everybody is happy. The whole world knows that we are changing the clocks simultaneously.
I thought you would have got the answer, that was obvious. Well....it wasn't that obvious.
