164# The following eight (8) provinces pulled clocks back to UTC-04:00 at
165# midnight Monday May 31st. (that is, the night between 05/31 and 06/01).
166# Apparently, all nine provinces would go back to UTC-03:00 at the same
167# time in October 17th.

172# From Mariano Absatz (2004-06-14):
173# ... this weekend, the Province of Tucuman decided it'd go back to UTC-03:00
174# yesterday midnight (that is, at 24:00 Saturday 12th), since the people's
175# annoyance with the change is much higher than the power savings obtained....
176#
177# From Gwillim Law (2004-06-14):
178# http://www.lanacion.com.ar/04/06/10/de_609078.asp ...
179# "The time change in Tierra del Fuego was a conflicted decision from
180# the start. The government had decreed that the measure would take
181# effect on June 1, but a normative error forced the new time to begin
182# three days earlier, from a Saturday to a Sunday....
183# Our understanding was that the change was originally scheduled to take place
184# on June 1 at 00:00 in Chubut, Santa Cruz, Tierra del Fuego (and some other
185# provinces). Sunday was May 30, only two days earlier. So the article
186# contains a contradiction. I would give more credence to the Saturday/Sunday
187# date than the "three days earlier" phrase, and conclude that Tierra del
188# Fuego set its clocks back at 2004-05-30 00:00.
189#
190# From Steffen Thorsen (2004-10-05):
191# The previous law 7210 which changed the province of Mendoza's time zone
192# back in May have been modified slightly in a new law 7277, which set the
193# new end date to 2004-09-26 (original date was 2004-10-17).
