(1) The correct term, in European English, is "[the state of] Summer
Time".  For Daylight Saving, Google swiftly for   cucumber Laputa   , or
even for   Laputa komkommer site:.nl   .

(2) Are there any locations in which a change to/from Summer Time
occurs, and can cause the DATE to change, when no time was specifically
given?  Maybe the Azores, and perhaps a modicum of Greenland?

However, all work with the Date Object in which differences from UTC are
not significant should use the UTC routines, since those are faster and
cause less confusion.
