I won't complain about the NDP for at least 3 days after this one. This is cause for celebration!

My dream world would have 86400 time zones, one per arc-second of the globe, so we can all sync our clocks at high noon.

#6I would have preferred permanent standard time to permanent daylight time. But I accept I'm in the minority, and even permanent daylight time is far superior to changing clocks twice a year.
