Also, fuck the US stubbornly refusing from adjusting to global conventions.
Dude, we ALL want to stop this nonsense, but politicians lack balls. Some states are like "yea, we'll stop DST if our neighbor does". What kind of spineless nonsense is that?
Indiana and Arizona are the only states with any guts - neither one does DST.
NL too, but last time I checked, their idea is to... (Scrapes memory) Permanently adopt DST together with Germany, locking Amsterdam time to UTC +02:00.
It's worth noting that without timezones, high noon in Amsterdam is about +00:13 from high noon in Greenwich, so if anything, the Dutch time zone should be UTC. Together with Belgium, France, Luxembourg and Spain, who all follow German time but are sometimes even further west. Heck, Madrid lies further west than London.
Little rant over, I'll get off my soapbox now.
