Time Zones changes in Argentina

[Mariano Absatz]

Hi again Paul,

now that I browse your proposed changes I see that the change to DST that was 
to happen in 1999/2000 (and never came to life, see the thread "Changes in 
Argentina (or not)" starting June 6, 2001) are still reflected in the tables.

In fact, there are 2 entries in EVERY zone in Argentina of the form:
> 			-3:00	Arg	AR%sT	1999 Oct  3
> 			-4:00	Arg	AR%sT	2000 Mar  3
to cancel the effect of the rules:
> Rule	Arg	1999	only	-	Oct	Sun>=1	0:00	1:00	S
> Rule	Arg	2000	only	-	Mar	Sun>=1	0:00	0	-

Wouldn't it be more simple to just erase all of them (including the rules, 
obviously)?
