18# A good source for time zone historical data in the US is
19# Thomas G. Shanks, The American Atlas (5th edition),
20# San Diego: ACS Publications, Inc. (1991).
21# Make sure you have the errata sheet; the book is somewhat useless without it.
22# It is the source for the US and Puerto Rico entries below.

24# From Paul Eggert (1996-06-12):
25# Daylight Saving Time was first suggested as a joke by Benjamin Franklin
26# in his whimsical essay ``Turkey vs Eagle, McCauley is my Beagle'' (1784).
27# Not everyone is happy with the results:
28#
29# I don't really care how time is reckoned so long as there is some
30# agreement about it, but I object to being told that I am saving
31# daylight when my reason tells me that I am doing nothing of the kind.
32# I even object to the implication that I am wasting something
33# valuable if I stay in bed after the sun has risen. As an admirer
34# of moonlight I resent the bossy insistence of those who want to
35# reduce my time for enjoying it. At the back of the Daylight Saving
36# scheme I detect the bony, blue-fingered hand of Puritanism, eager
37# to push people into bed earlier, and get them up earlier, to make
38# them healthy, wealthy and wise in spite of themselves.

401# From Bob Devine (1988-01-28):
402# Michigan didn't observe DST from 1968 to 1973.
403#
404# From Paul Eggert (1995-12-19):
405# Shanks writes that Michigan started using standard time on 1885 Sep 18,
406# but Howse (p 126) writes that Detroit kept
407#
408# local time until 1900 when the City Council decreed that clocks should
409# be put back twenty-eight minutes to Central Standard Time. Half the
410# city obeyed, half refused. After considerable debate, the decision
411# was rescinded and the city reverted to Sun time. A derisive offer to
412# erect a sundial in front of the city hall was referred to the
413# Committee on Sewers. Then, in 1905, Central time was adopted
414# by city vote.
415#
416# This story is too entertaining to be false, so go with Howse over Shanks.
417#
418# Most of Michigan observed DST from 1973 on, but was a bit late in 1975.

712# From Paul Eggert (1996-06-12):
713# Shanks writes that since 1970 most of this region has been like Regina.
714# Some western towns (e.g. Swift Current) switched from MST/MDT to CST in 1972.
715# Other western towns (e.g. Lloydminster) are like Edmonton.

758# From W. Jones <jones@skdad.usask.ca> (November 6, 1992):
717# From W. Jones <jones@skdad.usask.ca> (1992-11-06):
718# The. . .below is based on information I got from our law library, the
719# provincial archives, and the provincial Community Services department.
720# A precise history would require digging through newspaper archives, and
721# since you didn't say what you wanted, I didn't bother.
722#
723# Saskatchewan is split by a time zone meridian (105W) and over the years
724# the boundary became pretty ragged as communities near it reevaluated
725# their affiliations in one direction or the other. In 1965 a provincial
726# referendum favoured legislating common time practices.
727#
728# On 15 April 1966 the Time Act (c. T-14, Revised Statutes of
729# Saskatchewan 1978) was proclaimed, and established that the eastern
730# part of Saskatchewan would use CST year round, that districts in
731# northwest Saskatchewan would by default follow CST but could opt to
732# follow Mountain Time rules (thus 1 hour difference in the winter and
733# zero in the summer), and that districts in southwest Saskatchewan would
734# by default follow MT but could opt to follow CST.
735#
736# It took a few years for the dust to settle (I know one story of a town
737# on one time zone having its school in another, such that a mom had to
738# serve her family lunch in two shifts), but presently it seems that only
739# a few towns on the border with Alberta (e.g. Lloydminster) follow MT
740# rules any more; all other districts appear to have used CST year round
741# since sometime in the 1960s.

868# From Guy Harris:
869# Rules are from the Official Airline Guide, Worldwide Edition, for 1987.
870# Rules prior to 1987 are unknown.
871# The comments in the OAG say "Only Ensenada, Mexicale, San Felipe and Tijuana
872# observe DST." This is presumably Baja California Norte, above 28th parallel,
873# as listed there; [there is also] "Baja California Sur and N. Pacific
874# Coast (States of Sinaloa and Sonora)."
875
931# From Bob Devine (January 28, 1988):
876# From Bob Devine (1988-01-28):
877# The Federal District (where Mexico City is) has observed [DST] several
878# times but not recently.
879#
880# I don't where to drawn the line in the North Baja area. 28th latitude
881# sounds good -- but it may be higher (how far [d]o radio stations from
882# San Diego affect culture?).
883#
884# The dates of DST probably go back to 1981. The rules are the same as
885# US's. This is going to be a headache for US presidential electi[o]n years!

923# ------------- Begin Forwarded Message -------------
924#
925# I finally got my hands on the Official Presidential Decree that sets up the
926# rules for the DST changes. The rules are:
927#
928# 1. The country is divided in 3 timezones:
929# - Baja California Norte (the Mexico/BajaNorte TZ)
930# - Baja California Sur, Nayarit, Sinaloa and Sonora (the Mexico/BajaSur TZ)
931# - The rest of the country (the Mexico/General TZ)
932#
933# 2. From the first Sunday in April at 2:00 AM to the last Sunday in October
934# at 2:00 AM, the times in each zone are as follows:
935# BajaNorte: GMT+7
936# BajaSur: GMT+6
937# General: GMT+5
938#
939# 3. The rest of the year, the times are as follows:
940# BajaNorte: GMT+8
941# BajaSur: GMT+7
942# General: GMT+6
943#
944# The Decree was published in Mexico's Official Newspaper on January 4th.
