The name of each hour is taken from a geographical feature indigenous to that time-zone. (This was done in order to be as apolitical and culturally-neutral in the naming process as possible. Also, in order to avoid a favoritism to the northern hemisphere and also to avoid any confusion because of daylight savings time, which is needed more in the higher latitudes, the geographical features chosen are near the equator.) In this new system, each hour of the day is the same globally. Time is reduced to one system, for everyone, no matter where they are on the planet. http://code.google.com/p/geo-clock geo-clock 0 0 gpl3_or_later GNU General Public License 3 or later
