Hey, did anyone see the CNN story last night about the watch company
,"Swatch" that is now selling timepieces which tell "Internet Time"?  I
can't remember exactly, but they said one minute of normal time=about 1 1/2
minutes Internet Time, and that the idea behind it is to facilitate
timekeeping around the world for internet users.  Everybody everywhere (even
on Mars?) will be using on the same time!

Arthur C. Clarke believes that the current timezone system will be abandoned
and everyone will use Universal Time in the future.  I agree with Arthur.
Or am I wrong, will we all be using Internet Time instead?

John Carmichael

p.s. What about Mars?
