Just to show how against the idea of saving the Argentine government is they decided to forgo daylight savings this year!!! That's right, we will stay exactly where we are and we will not have an extra hour of daylight. Its very sad. When I expressed shock at doing away with what to me has been a lifelong institution I was reminded that daylight savings was just an experiment the government dabbled in last year. People complained. Savings got the ax. So for all of those curious about where we are at in that social construction we call time, we will be two hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time once the clocks change in the States.

Of course, they announced it like the day before the non-change. This was not fun for someone who had to fly internationally the next week because the expected arrival times were off by an hour. As the locals say, "It's Argentina!"
