17 # From Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> (1995-12-19):
18 # A good source for time zone historical data in the US is
19 # Thomas G. Shanks, The American Atlas (5th edition),
20 # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (1991).
21 # Make sure you have the errata sheet; the book is somewhat useless without it.
22 # It is the source for the US and Puerto Rico entries below.
24 # From Paul Eggert (1996-06-12):
25 # Daylight Saving Time was first suggested as a joke by Benjamin Franklin
26 # in his whimsical essay ``Turkey vs Eagle, McCauley is my Beagle'' (1784).
27 # Not everyone is happy with the results:
28 #
29 # I don't really care how time is reckoned so long as there is some
30 # agreement about it, but I object to being told that I am saving
31 # daylight when my reason tells me that I am doing nothing of the kind.
32 # I even object to the implication that I am wasting something
33 # valuable if I stay in bed after the sun has risen. As an admirer
34 # of moonlight I resent the bossy insistence of those who want to
35 # reduce my time for enjoying it. At the back of the Daylight Saving
36 # scheme I detect the bony, blue-fingered hand of Puritanism, eager
37 # to push people into bed earlier, and get them up earlier, to make
38 # them healthy, wealthy and wise in spite of themselves.
39 #
40 # -- Robertson Davies, The Diary of Samuel Marchbanks (1947), XIX, Sunday
42 # From Arthur David Olson:
43 # US Daylight Saving Time ended on the last Sunday of *October* in 1974.
44 # See, for example, the front page of the Saturday, 1974-10-26
45 # and Sunday, 1974-10-27 editions of the Washington Post.
47 # From Arthur David Olson:
48 # Before the Uniform Time Act of 1966 took effect in 1967, observance of
49 # Daylight Saving Time in the US was by local option, except during wartime.

460 # From Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> (1996-11-22):
461 # A good source for time zone historical data outside the US is
462 # Thomas G. Shanks, The International Atlas (4th edition),
463 # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (1995).
464 #
465 # Gwillim Law <LAW@encmail.encompass.com> writes that a good source
466 # for recent time zone data is the International Air Transport
467 # Association's Standard Schedules Information Manual (IATA SSIM),
468 # published semiannually. Law sent in several helpful summaries
469 # of the IATA's data after 1990.
470 #
471 # Except where otherwise noted, Shanks is the source for entries through 1990,
472 # and IATA SSIM is the source for entries after 1990.
473 #
474 # Another source occasionally used is Edward W. Whitman, World Time Differences,
475 # Whitman Publishing Co, 2 Niagara Av, Ealing, London (undated), which

739 # From Paul Eggert (1996-06-12):
740 # Shanks writes that since 1970 most of this region has been like Regina.
741 # Some western towns (e.g. Swift Current) switched from MST/MDT to CST in 1972.
742 # Other western towns (e.g. Lloydminster) are like Edmonton.
744 # From W. Jones <jones@skdad.usask.ca> (1992-11-06):
745 # The. . .below is based on information I got from our law library, the
746 # provincial archives, and the provincial Community Services department.
747 # A precise history would require digging through newspaper archives, and
748 # since you didn't say what you wanted, I didn't bother.
749 #
750 # Saskatchewan is split by a time zone meridian (105W) and over the years
751 # the boundary became pretty ragged as communities near it reevaluated
752 # their affiliations in one direction or the other. In 1965 a provincial
753 # referendum favoured legislating common time practices.
754 #
755 # On 15 April 1966 the Time Act (c. T-14, Revised Statutes of
756 # Saskatchewan 1978) was proclaimed, and established that the eastern
757 # part of Saskatchewan would use CST year round, that districts in
758 # northwest Saskatchewan would by default follow CST but could opt to
759 # follow Mountain Time rules (thus 1 hour difference in the winter and
760 # zero in the summer), and that districts in southwest Saskatchewan would
761 # by default follow MT but could opt to follow CST.
762 #
763 # It took a few years for the dust to settle (I know one story of a town
764 # on one time zone having its school in another, such that a mom had to
765 # serve her family lunch in two shifts), but presently it seems that only
766 # a few towns on the border with Alberta (e.g. Lloydminster) follow MT
767 # rules any more; all other districts appear to have used CST year round
768 # since sometime in the 1960s.

901 # Mexico
903 # From Guy Harris:
904 # Rules are from the Official Airline Guide, Worldwide Edition, for 1987.
905 # Rules [before] 1987 are unknown.
906 # The comments in the OAG say "Only Ensenada, Mexicale, San Felipe and Tijuana
907 # observe DST." This is presumably Baja California Norte, above 28th parallel,
908 # as listed there; [there is also] "Baja California Sur and N. Pacific
909 # Coast (States of Sinaloa and Sonora)."
911 # From Bob Devine (1988-01-28):
912 # The Federal District (where Mexico City is) has observed [DST] several
913 # times but not recently.
914 #
915 # I don't where to drawn the line in the North Baja area. 28th latitude
916 # sounds good -- but it may be higher (how far [d]o radio stations from
917 # San Diego affect culture?).
918 #
919 # The dates of DST probably go back to 1981. The rules are the same as
920 # US's. This is going to be a headache for US presidential electi[o]n years!
922 # From Arthur David Olson (1988-02-13)
923 # Since the 1981 starting date is only "probable," we'll keep the 1987
924 # starting date below.
926 # From U. S. Naval Observatory (1989-01-19):
927 # MEXICO BAJA CAL N 7 H BEHIND UTC BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR AND
928 # MEXICO BAJA CAL N N. PACIFIC COAST (STATES
929 # MEXICO BAJA CAL N OF SINALOA AND SONORA)
930 # MEXICO BAJA CAL N 8 H BEHIND UTC ABOVE 28TH PARALLEL APR 3

940 # MEXICO 6 H BEHIND UTC GENERAL MEXICO, STATES OF
941 # MEXICO CAMPECHE, QUINTANA ROO AND
942 # MEXICO YUCATAN
944 # From Arthur David Olson (1989-01-21):
945 # April 3 fell on a Sunday in 1988; October 29 fell on a Sunday in 1989. Ahem.
946 # USNO claims there should be four Mexican zones rather than three:
947 # a zone that's GMT-8 with DST; a zone that's always GMT-7;
948 # a zone that's GMT-6 with DST; and a zone that's always GMT-6.
950 # From Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> (1993-11-18):
951 # Shanks also says there are four zones, but disagrees about the fourth.
952 # Instead of GMT-6 with DST, he says there's GMT-8 without DST.
954 # From Alan Perry <alan.perry@eng.sun.com> (1996-02-15):
955 # A guy from our Mexico subsidiary finally found the Presidential Decree
956 # outlining the timezone changes in Mexico.
957 #
958 # ------------- Begin Forwarded Message -------------
959 #
960 # I finally got my hands on the Official Presidential Decree that sets up the
961 # rules for the DST changes. The rules are:
962 #
963 # 1. The country is divided in 3 timezones:
964 # - Baja California Norte (the Mexico/BajaNorte TZ)
965 # - Baja California Sur, Nayarit, Sinaloa and Sonora (the Mexico/BajaSur TZ)
966 # - The rest of the country (the Mexico/General TZ)
967 #
968 # 2. From the first Sunday in April at 2:00 AM to the last Sunday in October
969 # at 2:00 AM, the times in each zone are as follows:
970 # BajaNorte: GMT+7
971 # BajaSur: GMT+6
972 # General: GMT+5
973 #
974 # 3. The rest of the year, the times are as follows:
975 # BajaNorte: GMT+8
976 # BajaSur: GMT+7
977 # General: GMT+6
978 #
979 # The Decree was published in Mexico's Official Newspaper on January 4th.
