	Daylight Time
		Many other countries observe some form of "summer time", but they do not necessarily change their clocks on the same dates as the U.S. Daylight time and time zones in the U.S. are defined in the U.S. Code, Title 15, Chapter 6, Subchapter IX - Standard Time.
		History of Daylight Time in the U.S. Although standard time in time zones was instituted in the U.S. and Canada by the railroads in 1883, it was not established in U.S. law until the Act of March 19, 1918, sometimes called the Standard Time Act.
		Daylight saving time was repealed in 1919, but standard time in time zones remained in law.

	Time
		History of Standard Time in the U.S. Standard time in time zones was instituted in the U.S. and Canada by the railroads on 18 November 1883.
		Before then, time of day was a local matter, and most cities and towns used some form of local solar time, maintained by some well-known clock (for example, on a church steeple or in a jeweler's window).
		Daylight saving time was repealed in 1919, but standard time in time zones remained in law, with the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) having the authority over time zone boundaries.

		Daylight Saving is the process of changing Local Civil Time, by adding or subtracting a fixed time period, usually and hour.
		All Times are recorded with the Name of the local Civil time used to record them and a few denormailzed attributes (Offset and Daylight Savings) for efficiency.
		When recording a time with this model you need to know the date and time and the civil time that is being used.

		It is also being circulated to the tz mailing group for comment, since the Olson time zone database is used as the source for time zone identifiers and computation rules.

		Where there is daylight, it does lose information -- although actually not much -- but avoids the problem of using cities that may either be unknown to the user or not in a script s/he can read.

		When Windows NT automatically adjusts for daylight savings time, the times on files on Windows NT file system (NTFS) partitions and the events in the event logs are retroactively shifted by one hour, even though the files and event records were created before the daylight savings time change.
		When you select your local time zone for the system, the appropriate number of hours are added or subtracted to the stored GMT value.
		In other words, if you are viewing an event remotely that actually occurred at 8:00 PM Central Daylight Time, the time displayed for the event on your computer will be 6:00 PM when you view the event from the Pacific Daylight Time zone.
