That is very interesting.

That is interesting. I thought time zones were hours only.

[epitome]

Interesting. That is something I never knew.

One thing I could never wrap my head around is how some areas choose not to participate in daylight savings time.

in the old days: pre mass transit, every area had their own time set by the sun or however they chose. time didn't become standardized until the railroads hooked everything up in the USA. I thinik I read that once a year at midnight all the trains pull over and stop on the track while they sort the time out...
