- rspeer 11y agoWhile fixing everything about times and dates seems great in the abstract, these guys sound approximately like the French revolutionaries proposing their new calendar. And at least the French came up with new names when they were doing things differently. The headaches that come from relabeling the calendar -- to one that looks confusingly the same, except that "January 1" has a different meaning than it used to -- would probably cause a century of bugs and confusion.
