	2AM is the time at which US switches occur also, in either direction.

	Unfortunately, my radio controlled clocks tend to synchronize between 1
and 2 AM, and those that automatically do daylight vs normal switching
(three Oregon Scientific) miss the broadcast of the change. My watch and a
LaCrosse unit require manual toggling between the two.


	Good thing I don't run a store... I'd annoy my customers by changing
the store hours instead <G>
