RE: Oracle and DST changes

That's funny :)

Except if Arizona is using those data types and needs to calculate the time a flight will take between destinatins... It needs to know when and how much and keep it's data accurate.

BTW Kabul is 10.5 off GMT, No DST, but who cares, they're cuckoo, (as in strange, very unconventional... hmmn wait that's me... but then again at least I'm not living in one of the few countries left in the world that doesn't switch on the hour).

You should move to Arizona, it doesn't have DST. It has plenty of daylight as it is, and
it is one of the few states that doesn't implement DST.
