Put the entire world on one clock that is based on Universal Time.

So what if you go to work at 3:00 am? If it's light outside, what difference does it make? It's all attitude and personal perspective.

If the whole world was on one clock, we wouldn't have to make conversions just because of one's longitudinal position.

Besides, time is supposed to be a fixed element for those of us not traveling near the speed of light.

One time for everyone. Why is that so difficult to understand?
