Birds Books and Bullshit<p>Hate daylight savings? New time zone proposal:</p><p>Sunrise is at 7 AM.<br>That's it.</p><p>Yes, the new time zones will be very thin. Yes, it won't work very well at very high latitudes. Yes, you will be constantly having to specify which time zone you scheduled something in. Yes, most days won't actually be 24 hours long anymore.
