Thanks for the clarification, Dave. I see I missed that "key" understanding there.

While testing, I am experiencing an error anytime I try and convert from America/Chicago to some other timezone on April 3rd at anytime during the 2:00 am hour (the hour we "spring forward").

I am running on Windows XP using ActiveState Perl 5.8.6. Code sample below. Has anyone else seen this error?


The change does not occur _at_ 2:00 AM local, because there is no such thing. What happens is that the clock goes form 1:59.59 to 3:00.00

See the section "Invalid Local Times" in the DT.pm docs.
