Springing Forward Creates Big Issue for Information Technologies
There is a little-known glitch on the way that could soon confound computer systems across the United States. In 2005 when the Congress passed legislation to lengthen the U.S. observation of Daylight SavingTime (DST), the move was a benign effort to squeeze a little more light out of each of our days. The legislation moved the start of DST forward in 2007 by three weeks — it will begin this year on March 11, rather than the traditional first Saturday in April. At the close of the season, DST will not end until November 4, a week later than the traditional last Saturday in October.
