in reply to Daylight Saving

Also sprach gnork:

how do I find out if daylight saving is in effect for a certain date?

(WARNING: SMART-ALECK RESPONSE TO FOLLOW)

Moving to Arizona, Hawaii, or Indiana makes this problem trivial.

    Most parts of Arizona, and most parts of Indiana.

    Of course, there is a similar concept in other parts of the world, and the rules on what date the timeshift happens vary too. For example, southern hemisphere countries shift the opposite way, as Santa Claus has to wear a much cooler outfit down there.

      An interesting note about Arizona:
      In Arizona, many Indian reservations DO switch to daylight saving time, while the rest of the state does NOT. For example, the Navajo Reservation DOES switch to daylight saving time, but the Hopi reservation, located in the middle of it, DOES NOT.
