timezones are pretty vital to the world. Well, not the zones themselves, but everybody being up when it's day on their side. If everyone was up at the same time, the nocturnal side of the world would become inhabited by vampires, and you don't want the world to become inhabited by vampires, do you?

But you could just not have timezones, and have people get up at different times. The British get up at ~7:00, Americans around 12:00 and the Japanese around 20:00. Basically, everyone sets his clock according to GMT, but lives according to the sun (roughly).
If  ;), :D, ;D, ::), :P, :-X, :o or >:D are attached, that paragraph may not be 100% serious. Seriously.

Getting on a plane when you only go to just ONE other timezone is confusing enough, I can't imagine how that could work!!!

I included the "not the zones themselves, but everybody being up when it's day on their side" line specifically to avoid you posting this.

Uh, quite simple. You don't adjust your watch. And as far as arrival/departure times go, as there is no difference between local and global time (as every local time is just the same global time), there can't be any confusion about these either. Unless you misunderstood what I wrote and though I meant to orient the measurement of time according to the sun, and not the times people are active.

Of course it is vital and vampires would be not cool, but I just feel it is no fun talking to myself, you know? :P

It's like an AA meeting.

"Hi, my name is KangarooGirl; I'm from Australia and I hate timezones."

"Hi KangarooGirl."

And also I was going to make a comment about Hayley finding a new BFF in Nix, but DDDDD:

DON'T REPLACE ME, HAYLS!! :'(

I like Callid's idea.
And I hate the change to summer time every year!
