Soap is fine on a cast-iron pan. Despite what people always say about non-stick, I don't find cast-iron and teflon to be really comparable. The reason I'd use cast-iron is because I want steady, even heating, want to develop a f

That's not what OP is suggesting. You're suggesting infinite timezones (i.e. use solar time). OP is suggesting to only have one universal timezone.

If you're saying we should have a global standard reference time, sure I agree but we already do: Zulu/UTC. e.g. the US military uses it despite it not being local to anywhere in the US. But you don't just want to throw away
