THEN, on top of that, it's not well known, but there's a provision in the law that says this is a test year, and DST could go back to the original dates next year if this doesn't work out. So if they kill the law, I have to go back and remove the patch from my entire UNIX/Solaris/Linux environment.
Oh well, worse things have happened in life...
