Leave time zones alone, it’s not broken.

100 seconds to the minute, 100 minutes to the hour, and 100 hours in a day.

You joke, but the Swatch group actually came up with a marginally workable system for that. Swatch Internet Time. Combine that with a Discordian Calendar, and we'd all be set. Noone would have any idea what time it was, or what day.

For me, the current date/time would be the 17th day of The Aftermath in the YOLD 3183 @227

If that's not confusing enough, the day of the week is Prickle-Prickle.
