>Description:
 In this year here, in Mexico, we changed the way the Day Light Savings
 are going to be.

 The new rules are: DLS begin on the first Sunday of May.
                    DLS end on the last Sunday of September.



>How-To-Repeat:
Argh!
just watch the computer clock and then the clock in the wall
in mexico city.
>Fix:
