Hello, Please see the data below from your latest data release (2001a): # From Arthur David Olson (2000-09-25): # Last night I heard part of a rebroadcast of a 1945 Arch Oboler radio drama. # In the introduction, Oboler spoke of "Eastern Peace Time." # An AltaVista search turned up # <a href="http://rowayton.org/rhs/hstaug45.html">: # "When the time is announced over the radio now, it is 'Eastern Peace # Time' instead of the old familiar 'Eastern War Time.' Peace is wonderful." # </a> (August 1945) by way of confirmation. # Rule NAME FROM TO TYPE IN ON AT SAVE LETTER/S Rule US 1918 1919 - Mar lastSun 2:00 1:00 D Rule US 1918 1919 - Oct lastSun 2:00 0 S *Rule US 1942 only - Feb 9 2:00 1:00 W # War Rule US 1945 only - Aug 14 23:00u 1:00 P # Peace I am confused about the rule for 1942 above (with asterisk.) Since the paragraph above says that they started calling it 'Eastern Peace Time' in 1945 doesn't that imply that the 1942 rule was in effect from 1942 to 1945 and not 1942 only? Thanks in Advance, Zane Appel
