Just to throw one more unwelcome cat amongst the pigeons..
Different countries/time zones have summer time, I think almost all
countries do, but the actual days when they switch vary from country (yes I
know, bloody nusiance isn't it?)
I know as an example of this theres about three weeks of the year where new
york is 6 hours behing UK, and the rest its only 5.
