But what this could mean for Estonia's chances of joining the European Union are still unclear. In 1994, the EU declared summer time compulsory for all membe r states until 2001. Brussels has yet to decide what to do after that.
This is wrong, IIRC: the EU harmonized the starting and ending dates of summer time *if* the member nation used it, but did not require its use. Can anyone confirm or refute this story? -- John Cowan cowan@ccil.org I am a member of a civilization. --David Brin
