i still think timezones were a mistake, and that they shouldn't exist period. I have a long thread about this from an earlier post about timezones as well amusingly enough.

I honestly can't tell if you are pro or anti time zones from this comment.

Nobody likes missing a train.
In this scenario, missing a train is caused by timezones.
It's sarcasm. So against timezones.
Maybe, against more granular timezones, ok with status-quo, but would be happy if all official correspondence happened with UTC.
Possibly completely against timezones.
Maybe a mix of all of the above
