Interesting that it mentioned Bakersfield California as one of the early risers... I lived there for a while and worked in the oil industry, and the parking lot was full by 7:30. I had a ton of meetings at 7:00, and 6:00 ones too. My boss started work at 5:00 and left by 2:00. I figured a lot of it was because the operator shift change was at 6AM, so people were just used to the idea that the work day starts early. Plus it gets darn hot in the afternoons in Bakersfield :)
