237# A good source for time zone historical data outside the U.S. is
238# Thomas G. Shanks, The International Atlas (3rd edition),
239# San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (1991).
240# Except where otherwise noted, it is the source for the data below.

242# Another source occasionally used is Edward W. Whitman, World Time Differences,

244# I found in the UCLA library.
245#
246# I invented the abbreviation SPST for St Pierre Standard Time; SPDT likewise.
