 1.1  christos there is a reference to British Double Summer Time.
 1.1  christos The time does not play a large part in the plot;
1.15  christos its just a passing reference to the time when one of the

 1.1  christos The premise of the 1999 caper movie <em>Entrapment</em> involves computers
 1.1  christos in an international banking network being shut down briefly at
 1.1  christos midnight in each time zone to avoid any problems at the transition
 1.1  christos from the year 1999 to 2000 in that zone. (Hmmmm.) If this shutdown
 1.1  christos is extended by 10 seconds, it will create a one-time opportunity for
 1.1  christos a gigantic computerized theft. To achieve this, at one location the
 1.1  christos crooks interfere with the microwave system supplying time signals to
 1.1  christos the computer, advancing the time by 0.1 second each minute over the
1.15  christos last hour of 1999. (So this movie teaches us that 0.1  60 = 10.)

 1.1  christos The idea behind daylight saving time was first proposed as a joke by
1.15  christos Benjamin Franklin. To enforce it, he suggested, Every
 1.1  christos morning, as soon as the sun rises, let all the bells in every church
 1.1  christos be set ringing; and if that is not sufficient, let cannon be fired in
 1.1  christos every street, to wake the sluggards effectually, and make them open
 1.1  christos their eyes to see their true interest. All the difficulty will be in
 1.1  christos the first two or three days: after which the reformation will be as
1.15  christos natural and easy as the present irregularity; for, <em>ce nest que le
1.15  christos premier pas qui cote</em>.
