This is absolute hogwash.  As I said above, DST (in both the USA and Canada),
does not happen on an arbitrary day.  It *ALWAYS* happens at 2:00AM on a
Sunday morning.  Not sure why the McNoob can't understand this.

Here's a link to help him with that factual info:

 Mc> Worst. Monday. Ever.

Really?  Losing one hour of sleep (even though it didn't actually happen
on a Sunday night despite your bleatings), resulted in the worst Monday
morning of your life?  Wow, you've led a sheltered life or..... something.

Somebody please quote this so the McNoob can keep up the pretense of having
me "filtered" and reply.  I'd like to see him argue that DST happens the
way he thinks it does.


.... Your inability to understand something is not a valid argument against it.
