So now I will not have to find the timezone, but I'll have to take a look at something like "SUT Sunrise World Map" and figure out which part of the day-night cycle is the destination. I agree, this will help me when I travel from Europe to the States - since I will not need to adjust my mind and freak out when I see my watch, but when I go there I'll have to adapt to something else, different than timezone. P.S. I like the idea of 1 min = 100 seconds, My programmer's background and SUT will give me something like 10 megaseconds = 1 hour, which is nice.
