Was 2005 through 2008 when WA experimented with DST again? (Still a bug, but this could be a reason.)
Possibly - it has been a fraught issue (typical WA parochialism, a characteristic which the natives have become proud to espouse) Check out Wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_in_Australia> on Australian daylight saving - it does give an idea of the history from 1970s until now. _____ Ian Thomas Victoria Park, Western Australia
