Below the link to the North America file, you should see a few examples:

> A spirited attack on daylight savings from Canadian intellectual Roberton Davies in 1947: [full quote]

> A story of a public clock in Nashville in the 1950s with “dueling faces”—one time for conservatives and another for liberals.

> An account of the “day of two noons” in New York City in 1883, when standardized time zones were adopted and “local time” was abandoned forever.

> A detective story about ascertaining the proper chronology of time zones in Resolute Bay, a tiny community north of the Arctic circle.
