Interesting.  In Russia it was sometimes called the "decree" time even though
 historically the "decree time" was something different.  (And guess what: the
spring-forward/fall-back mnemonics don't help non-English speakers.)

It only barely helps me (a native English speaker living in Pacific Time) -- it tells me which way the clock is going to go, but I am still clueless as to which is Daylight Savings and which is Daylight Standard.
