Default Daylight Savings Patch

The updates may or may not affect Mr. Candlin at all. If they do, then the
date DST ends is just as important as the date it begins. One or the other
occurs in the spring, one or the other occurs in the fall. By convention, MS
counts the date in effect for various TZ settings as per (Gregorian)
calendar year, so any changes should be made on or about Jan 1, each year. I
will be updating my own patch yearly, some time early in the Holiday season.

I had come to almost believe that up-side-down people like Candlin may
legitimately change their dates in October. However, I'm willing to side
with Terhune & say you are correct-- that everyone must do it today!
Anyhow, TZEdit appears to have worked well for me.

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
