As if we didn't have enough of complexity in telling time already!
Look at this:
1 year - 365 or 366 days!
1 day - 24 hours
1 hour - 60 minute
1 minute - 60 seconds
1 second - 1000 milli seconds
No doubt all the children go nuts, when taught this! what is the relation between 365, 366, 24,60,60,10.
In US, also dates are in Month/day/year order! what kind of arrangement is this? To me day -> month-> year is logical.
Now to add more fun we have daylight saving time!
I hope now they don't decrease time between 12 to 1 from 60 to 30 minutes [lunch time] to boost economy!
