I think that’s called ‘Zulu’ time used in global activity coordination.

Going about our activities at the optimum time, regardless of the earths rotation reference makes sense, but good luck with that. We are still largely using a clock system established during agrarian societies.

Repeating a time cycle for a day based on light and dark has more inconveniencies and costs than just hassling with our clocks twice a year. It’s a shrinking world that technology has made even the least developed countries active in daily, and we still do not use the 24 hour (NOT ‘military time’, they only use it because it works better and they don’t have to have you get over yourself to make an improvement) clock.

Let’s not be encumbered with the facts, no matter how much it effects us. We can’t get our eyes open to see something at the end of our nose, like the metric system. How are you going to deal with something as abstract at time.







subnote:
People cook out a lot in the summer time. The largest lobby when DLST was passed in most states was the charcoal industry.
What a coincidence.
