[edit] Inconsistency

The data added to the map says that Daylight Saving time in Europe starts at 00:00 UTC on the last Sunday in March, but all available information would seem to indicate that it in fact starts at 01:00 UTC. Am I missing something?

Yes. Indiana in the United States doesn't observe DST. -- R'son-W (speak to me/breathe) 22:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Nope. There is DST in Indiana, and has been since 2005. - Desmond Hobson (talk) 01:46, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Hm. Iceland doesn't have the + mark, but it should, since it doesn't observe DST.

[edit] Subpixel rendering

Hi. I just noticed the "DST Rules" blocks of text use subpixel rendering (text with slightly colored edges). I think this might be a problem when printing that image, like the text appearing fuzzy. I don't know if it's an important matter though. ChrisK 22:44, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Some observations

  • I could not get my Microsoft Word program to print out the entire page. Even at the lowest setting of 30 percent, the Korean peninsula and part of Japan and Australia were cut off. I copied it onto My Pictures and it printed out the whole thing. However, I need a magnifying glass to see a lot of the page![LOL]
  • This comes from the CIA World Fact Book, so there is no place called China or Taiwan on the map. This is due to the ongoing dispute and the U.S. government refusing to recognize either as the Chinese government (I think). I found that odd, but that's the explanation. - Desmond Hobson (talk) 01:46, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
