Hello Daylight saving time has just begun in Brazil. And, as every year, I hear the most unimaginable argumentation against it. Like someone who contended it was invented and introduced in Brazil by the military dictatorship as an act againt the people. In fact, daylight saving time was suspended during the dictatorship!
Another one said he can't work or study during the summer because the daylight saving time plays havoc with his health... Even though I know DST was alive and kicking in the fifities, it does not seem I have a quick way to determine when it was introduced in Brazil for the first time. So, the question is: does anybody there knows when it was first introduced in the world? And in specific countries, like the US, UK, etc.? Best regards. And "carpe 'the longer' diem". :-) - fernando -- REDUZIR, REUSAR, RECICLAR -- Dever de todos, amor aos que virão REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE -- Everybody's duty, love to those who are to come Fernando Cabral Padrao iX Sistemas Abertos mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pix.com.br Fone Direto: +55 61 329-0206 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PABX: +55 61 329-0202 Fax: +55 61 326-3082 15º 45' 04.9" S (23 L 0196446/8256520) 47º 49' 58.6" W 19º 37' 57.0" S (23 K 0469898/7829161) 45º 17' 13.6" W
