so who will see the remake of the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy?

As a matter of interest. China uses ONE time zone even though it spans FOUR...

new that, mentioned it earlier.

also did you know that computers do it already? that is why in your settings you tell it in what time zone you are in and if you use DST.


So New York could be having lunch at 12:00 but I would be having lunch (in Chicago) at 1:00, Denver 2:00, L.A., 3:00 etc?

exactly, but even though I would love EST to be used, I don't think it would be the one picked. My guess is either GMT or on the other side of the world the international date line, but honestly don't care.

Example: Don't call Chan in China, it's 2AM over there!

We are supposed to respond "so what, 2AM is lunchtime in China!" (Just an example I didn't get out my world map to figure this out.) But is this a likely scenario?

but wouldn't you do that now?
