@david_chisnall do you have a source of any kind? I don't really "need" authority, but I'm very curious and I've read like a half dozen search hits for "bush" + "daylight saving" and none mentioned anything like this.

@coder @david_chisnall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_Policy_Act_of_2005#Change_to_daylight_saving_time mentions that the “Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association” pushed for the change.

@andrewg @coder @david_chisnall ah, nice. I think I misread a bit the original toot; I thought the DST *differences* between US and Europe granted GWB more golf time somehow.

But I think I made up that idea in my head because it was too fun :)

(I worked in a US company for a while with recurring meetings created by someone in Mexico. I believe their DST transitions are also different? In any case, there was some chaos during two weeks a year.)
