Oh, OK. But, like, more than just him?
If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use them.

No semi-annual clock changes, everyone yells "Happy new year!" at the same time and no time zone confusions. Instead of it now being 1:20pm (1320) Central Daylight Time (UTC -5) as I post this, it would be 1820Z. MikeThere already is UTC and people who need it already use it.

MikeThere already is UTC and people who need it already use it.As someone who worked on UTC/Z for much of my career, I appreciate it for what it is. But Time Zones are underrated because of all the good they do. Originally introduced to synchronize train schedules, they help coordinate everything from TV schedules to organizing family phone calls in far-flung cities. Few people appreciate them. It's a lot easier to work together when at worst you're on a different hour but the same minute from your partners in different cities rather than everyone being on their own time even in cities as close as St Louis and Kansas City. I'm sure our phones could handle constantly updating our time for location with every incremental change of longitude but I'm sure we'd all hate it. Most people would be surprised to find out they've only been around for about 150 years.

Bass players are underrated.

Getting home from a trip and taking a dump on your own toilet with normal, decent TP instead of the thinner stuff most hotels provide. Massively underrated experience.
