My OS X calendar service just sent me a note that DST ends the last
Sunday of October. However, I thought it now ended the first Sunday of
November. If I am right, why has the calendar never been corrected?

I don't know what service you're using, but mine
<webcal://ical.mac.com/ical/US32Holidays.ics>
has it correct (1st Sunday in November).

For the US, DST ends November 1, 2009. Other countries have different
schedules. <http://aa.usno.navy.mil/faq/docs/daylight_time.php>

My commercial wall calendar shows that DST ends October 25, 2009 for
Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, and, UK.

Best suggestion is to check your official local sources if in doubt.

The Sunday after Halloween in the US . I remember that because the
Congressional testimony actually justified the change "for the kids" so
they could TorT in daylight. They are shameless at times.
