Most people don't have control over their work schedule. Daylight

But if they got up an hour earlier, they could get some stuff done
before going to work. Hence benefit from an extra hour of daylight.

There is NO "extra hour of daylight". The daylight hours stay the
same.

Sure, but if someone wanted to live such a bucolic existent getting
away from it all and living off the land to the rhythms of nature why
would they care about the time enough to bother with a clock?

A pistol to the head will get you there quick.

Aren't we morbid today!

A cry for help? Nah. A rejection of escapism. I was rude.

Any red blooded American who grew up listening to WWV knows 24 hour time.

I done deeeeeecided, (deeeeeeeeecided ~ Walter Brennan, another one of
my Heros) come June of this year, I am going to buy me a new, one of the
lowest priced, Velocity Micro desktop (I Likes desktops, laptop danging
isn't for me, unless any of them wimmins wants to dance on my lap)
computerys.I thinks I likes that Velocity Micro Vector desktop, whatever
it is, with Windows 7 osperatin systema.
Then I will have me two (count em, Two) Velocity Micro desktops to play
with. XP and also 7.

When you care enough to buy the Very Best.
N-E-S-T-L-E-S,,, Nestles makes the Very Best,,,, C-H-O-C-O-L-A-T-E.

I don't need a clock that has the numbers to see what time it is.If you
have a clock and it is easy to remove the dial face, or even leave the
dial face off, put the hands back on there.Still easy enough to see what
time it is.

Say cuzz,,, what time is it?
