30 # From Paul Eggert (2006-03-22): |
|
31 # A good source for time zone historical data outside the U.S. is |
|
32 # Thomas G. Shanks and Rique Pottenger, The International Atlas (6th edition), |
|
33 # San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (2003). |
|
34 # |
|
35 # Gwillim Law writes that a good source |
|
36 # for recent time zone data is the International Air Transport |
|
37 # Association's Standard Schedules Information Manual (IATA SSIM), |
|
38 # published semiannually. Law sent in several helpful summaries |
|
39 # of the IATA's data after 1990. |
|
40 # |
|
41 # Except where otherwise noted, Shanks & Pottenger is the source for |
|
42 # entries through 1990, and IATA SSIM is the source for entries afterwards. |
|
43 # |
|
44 # Earlier editions of these tables used the North American style (e.g. ARST and |
|
45 # ARDT for Argentine Standard and Daylight Time), but the following quote |
|
46 # suggests that it's better to use European style (e.g. ART and ARST). |
|
47 # I suggest the use of _Summer time_ instead of the more cumbersome |
|
48 # _daylight-saving time_. _Summer time_ seems to be in general use |
|
49 # in Europe and South America. |
|
50 # -- E O Cutler, _New York Times_ (1937-02-14), quoted in |
|
51 # H L Mencken, _The American Language: Supplement I_ (1960), p 466 |
|
52 # |
|
53 # Earlier editions of these tables also used the North American style |
|
54 # for time zones in Brazil, but this was incorrect, as Brazilians say |
|
55 # "summer time". Reinaldo Goulart, a Sao Paulo businessman active in |
|
56 # the railroad sector, writes (1999-07-06): |
|
57 # The subject of time zones is currently a matter of discussion/debate in |
|
58 # Brazil. Let's say that "the Brasilia time" is considered the |
|
59 # "official time" because Brasilia is the capital city. |
|
60 # The other three time zones are called "Brasilia time "minus one" or |
|
61 # "plus one" or "plus two". As far as I know there is no such |
|
62 # name/designation as "Eastern Time" or "Central Time". |
|
63 # So I invented the following (English-language) abbreviations for now. |

133 # We just checked with our Sao Paulo office and they say the government of |

134 # Argentina decided not to become one of the countries that go on or off DST. |
|
135 # So Buenos Aires should be -3 hours from GMT at all times. |

137 # From Fabian L. Arce Jofre (2000-04-04): |
|
138 # The law that claimed DST for Argentina was derogated by President Fernando |
|
139 # de la Rua on March 2, 2000, because it would make people spend more energy |
|
140 # in the winter time, rather than less. The change took effect on March 3. |

|
194 # ... this weekend, the Province of Tucuman decided it'd go back to UTC-03:00 |

195 # yesterday midnight (that is, at 24:00 Saturday 12th), since the people's |

|
200 # "The time change in Tierra del Fuego was a conflicted decision from |
|
201 # the start. The government had decreed that the measure would take |
|
202 # effect on June 1, but a normative error forced the new time to begin |
|
203 # three days earlier, from a Saturday to a Sunday.... |
|
204 # Our understanding was that the change was originally scheduled to take place |
|
205 # on June 1 at 00:00 in Chubut, Santa Cruz, Tierra del Fuego (and some other |
|
206 # provinces). Sunday was May 30, only two days earlier. So the article |
|
207 # contains a contradiction. I would give more credence to the Saturday/Sunday |
|
208 # date than the "three days earlier" phrase, and conclude that Tierra del |
|
209 # Fuego set its clocks back at 2004-05-30 00:00. |

|
384 # From Paul Eggert (1993-11-18): |
|
385 # The mayor of Rio recently attempted to change the time zone rules |
|
386 # just in his city, in order to leave more summer time for the tourist trade. |
|
387 # The rule change lasted only part of the day; |
|
388 # the federal government refused to follow the city's rules, and business |
|
389 # was in a chaos, so the mayor backed down that afternoon. |
|
390 |
|
391 # From IATA SSIM (1996-02): |
|
392 # _Only_ the following states in BR1 observe DST: Rio Grande do Sul (RS), |
|
393 # Santa Catarina (SC), Parana (PR), Sao Paulo (SP), Rio de Janeiro (RJ), |
|
394 # Espirito Santo (ES), Minas Gerais (MG), Bahia (BA), Goias (GO), |
|
395 # Distrito Federal (DF), Tocantins (TO), Sergipe [SE] and Alagoas [AL]. |
|
396 # [The last three states are new to this issue of the IATA SSIM.] |
|
397 |
|
398 # From Gwillim Law (1996-10-07): |
|
399 # Geography, history (Tocantins was part of Goias until 1989), and other |
|
400 # sources of time zone information lead me to believe that AL, SE, and TO were |
|
401 # always in BR1, and so the only change was whether or not they observed DST.... |
|
402 # The earliest issue of the SSIM I have is 2/91. Each issue from then until |
|
403 # 9/95 says that DST is observed only in the ten states I quoted from 9/95, |
|
404 # along with Mato Grosso (MT) and Mato Grosso do Sul (MS), which are in BR2 |
|
405 # (UTC-4).... The other two time zones given for Brazil are BR3, which is |
|
406 # UTC-5, no DST, and applies only in the state of Acre (AC); and BR4, which is |
|
407 # UTC-2, and applies to Fernando de Noronha (formerly FN, but I believe it's |
|
408 # become part of the state of Pernambuco). The boundary between BR1 and BR2 |
|
409 # has never been clearly stated. They've simply been called East and West. |
|
410 # However, some conclusions can be drawn from another IATA manual: the Airline |
|
411 # Coding Directory, which lists close to 400 airports in Brazil. For each |
|
412 # airport it gives a time zone which is coded to the SSIM. From that |
|
413 # information, I'm led to conclude that the states of Amapa (AP), Ceara (CE), |
|
414 # Maranhao (MA), Paraiba (PR), Pernambuco (PE), Piaui (PI), and Rio Grande do |
|
415 # Norte (RN), and the eastern part of Para (PA) are all in BR1 without DST. |

421 |
|
422 # From Jesper Norgaard (2000-11-03): |

|
426 |
|
427 # From Celso Doria via David Madeo (2002-10-09): |
|
428 # The reason for the delay this year has to do with elections in Brazil. |
|
429 # |
|
430 # Unlike in the United States, elections in Brazil are 100% computerized and |
|
431 # the results are known almost immediately. Yesterday, it was the first |
|
432 # round of the elections when 115 million Brazilians voted for President, |
|
433 # Governor, Senators, Federal Deputies, and State Deputies. Nobody is |
|
434 # counting (or re-counting) votes anymore and we know there will be a second |
|
435 # round for the Presidency and also for some Governors. The 2nd round will |
|
436 # take place on October 27th. |
|
437 # |
|
438 # The reason why the DST will only begin November 3rd is that the thousands |
|
439 # of electoral machines used cannot have their time changed, and since the |
|
440 # Constitution says the elections must begin at 8:00 AM and end at 5:00 PM, |
|
441 # the Government decided to postpone DST, instead of changing the Constitution |
|
442 # (maybe, for the next elections, it will be possible to change the clock)... |
|
443 |
|
444 # From Rodrigo Severo (2004-10-04): |
|
445 # It's just the biannual change made necessary by the much hyped, supposedly |
|
446 # modern Brazilian eletronic voting machines which, apparently, can't deal |
|
447 # with a time change between the first and the second rounds of the elections. |
|
448 |
|
449 # From Steffen Thorsen (2007-09-20): |
|
450 # Brazil will start DST on 2007-10-14 00:00 and end on 2008-02-17 00:00: |

729 # (1998-09-29): |

870 # |
|
871 # I have communicated several times with people there, and the last |
|
872 # time I had communications that was helpful was in 1998. Here is |
|
873 # what was said then: |
|
874 # |
|
875 # "The general rule was that Stanley used daylight saving and the Camp |
|
876 # did not. However for various reasons many people in the Camp have |
|
877 # started to use daylight saving (known locally as 'Stanley Time') |
|
878 # There is no rule as to who uses daylight saving - it is a matter of |
|
879 # personal choice and so it is impossible to draw a map showing who |
|
880 # uses it and who does not. Any list would be out of date as soon as |
|
881 # it was produced. This year daylight saving ended on April 18/19th |
|
882 # and started again on September 12/13th. I do not know what the rule |
|
883 # is, but can find out if you like. We do not change at the same time |
|
884 # as UK or Chile." |
|
885 # |
|
886 # I did have in my notes that the rule was "Second Saturday in Sep at |
|
887 # 0:00 until third Saturday in Apr at 0:00". I think that this does |
|
888 # not agree in some cases with Shanks; is this true? |
|
889 # |
|
890 # Also, there is no mention in the list that some areas in the |
|
891 # Falklands do not use DST. I have found in my communications there |
|
892 # that these areas are on the western half of East Falkland and all of |
|
893 # West Falkland. Stanley is the only place that consistently observes |
|
894 # DST. Again, as in other places in the world, the farmers don't like |
|
895 # it. West Falkland is almost entirely sheep farmers. |
|
896 # |
|
897 # I know one lady there that keeps a list of which farm keeps DST and |
|
898 # which doesn't each year. She runs a shop in Stanley, and says that |
|
899 # the list changes each year. She uses it to communicate to her |
|
900 # customers, catching them when they are home for lunch or dinner. |
|
901 |
|
902 # From Paul Eggert (2001-03-05): |
