... Any concern over contract expiration for those changes? Your contract would need to specify a time (not just a date) in a specific zone. Any "local time" contracts would have been affected by the multiple time zone changes in various locations. Not to mention the changes in the effective date of national DST in 1987 and 2007. Had a contract that expired in the weeks added to DST? You got an extra hour!
