[BC] RE: DST vs Daytimers

[David Reaves]

Phil, I'm not sure where you get your information from, but it  
appears to be incorrect.

The European time shift is identical to ours in the fall (last Sunday  
in October), and only one week different (sooner) than ours in the  
spring (EU=last Sunday in March, USA=first Sunday in April).

The new arrangement in 2007 will have the USA changing clocks the  
second Sunday in March (two weeks earlier than the EU) in the Spring,  
and the first Sunday in November (one week later than the EU) in the  
Fall.

So actually, we will move farther away from the EU's change dates,  
not closer.

Kind Regards,
David
