# Instead of putting back clocks at the end of October, Georgia

# will stay on daylight savings time this winter to save energy,

# President Eduard Shevardnadze decreed Wednesday.

#

# From the BBC via Joseph S. Myers (2004-06-27):

#

# Georgia moved closer to Western Europe on Sunday... The former Soviet

# republic has changed its time zone back to that of Moscow. As a result it

# is now just four hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time, rather than five hours

# ahead. The switch was decreed by the pro-Western president of Georgia,

# Mikhail Saakashvili, who said the change was partly prompted by the process

# of integration into Europe.

# time off in terms of Israeli politics.

# (2004-09-20):

# The latest rumour, however, is that in 2005, when the clock changes to

# Daylight Saving Time (date as yet unknown), the move will be a two-hour leap

# forward (from UTC+0200 to UTC+0400) and then, in the fall, the clock will

# move back only an hour to UTC+0300 thus effectively moving Israel's timezone

# from UTC+0200 to UTC+0300. However, no actual draft has been put before the

# Knesset (Israel's Parliament) though the intention is to do so this

# month [2004-09].

# (2004-09-26):

# Even though the draft law for the above did pass the Ministerial Committee

# for Legislative Matters three months ago, it was voted down in today's

# Cabinet meeting. The current suggestion is to keep the current timezone at

# UTC+0200 but have an extended period of Daylight Saving Time (UTC+0300) from

# the beginning of Passover holiday in the spring to after the Tabernacle

# holiday in the fall (i.e. the dates of which are governed by the Hebrew

# calendar but this means at least 184 days of DST). However, this is only a

# suggestion that was raised in today's cabinet meeting and has not yet been

# drafted.
