1110# From Kiraz Janicke (2007-09-25), in
1111# http://www.venezuelanalysis.com/analysis/2645:
1112# The proposal ... involves turning the clock back half an hour from
1113# +4.00 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), to +4.30GMT, the time zone
1114# Venezuela had until December 31, 1964, when the current time zone
1115# was adopted. The change was due to take place on September 17 and
1116# then on September 24, but has since been postponed until December
1117# 31, to allow for compliance with international organizations, such
1118# as the International Office of Weights and Measures.
