 There are no Texas cities in the dropdown list of time zones in the
 general settings of the WordPress basic setup.

 In fact, there are no Central Time Zone cities at all.

 If a state is represented, then we can be sure that the time zone responds
 correctly to Daylight Saving Time in that state. For example, Phoenix is
 sometimes different from Denver in Mountain Time Zone.

 Including Houston and/or Dallas (St. Louis? Oklahoma City, Omaha?) in the
 list would give me confidence that I don't have to remember to go in and
 change the time six months from now. Even "Central Time Zone with DST"
 would be more accurate than UTC -6.

 I understand that it's a long list, but the US Central Time Zone is a wide
 swath not to be represented.

 Thanks.

 Jan Bear
