What do those organizations do when Congress changes the DST rules?
Do they work on UTC/GMT so they can ignore DST? They must have to interact
with the rest of the world occasionally.
How much notice did people get the last time Congress changed the DST rules?
I don't pay attention to summer time in Europe. How often do things change
over there and/or how much notice do people get when the rules are changed?
