But in a way that’s a good example for what I meant. You and me communicate time both in reference to the time of day, not a virtual time of the planet that means something else to everyone depending on location, and you easily could spot my mistake.
Is being able to communicate about stuff like that casually, where you do not mean a specific time anyway, really worth the giant pile of pain that time zones add to actual scheduling?
It is easy to remember, the am/pm system works the way that doesn’t make sense (10am,11am,12pm…10pm,11pm,12am) unless you mentally substitute 0 for every 12.
erm… 12am is midnight
Ahem. Oops.

So let’s just say I did that on purpose.
