Mind you, bushel is volume, not weight... >Regarding to mainframe: since I installed STP, the time change is something I >don't care. CICS also adjust the time immediately (it's rather new feature). We did care when we installed STP. We intentionally 'lost' two hours and restarted all our toys including the STP. I specifically wrote Assembler, COBOL and REXX programs to verify our conversion by using all the different macros to extract times in various formats and locality.
