This is exactly the flagday that will make the upgrades to a few hundered telescopes look like peanuts.
In grad school one of my housemates was a Swedish postdoc with an inordinate fondness for Jack Lord and Hawaii Five-O (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNk_wlqFG5o )
Per had an entertaining description of the flagday when Sweden switched to right-side driving in 1967. Don't sell the entertainment value short as a way to bring timekeeping to the attention of a vast new public.
