every time you watch television you are informed of the idea of EST vs. Central Standard Time (or occasionally Pacific Standard Time) -- "Law & Order, watch it tonight at 10:00 pm, 9:00 pm Central".
I really don't watch a lot of actual television at all anymore, since Brandon started downloading entire seasons of shows (such as L&O and L&O:SVU). And when I do watch something on TV, I usually just ignore that stuff about time zones. I mean, if I look on the TV Guide channel, or Zap2It.com (which is an online tv guide), it just tells me that L&O is on at 10:00pm. That's all I need to know.
In fact, other than TV (which I hardly watch anymore), and knowing when I can call friends who live in different time zones (which would just be you, actually), the time zones don't affect my life directly.
Heh. This reminds me of the time in high school when you were completely flabbergasted that I didn't know who Tony Blair was. Well, I know who he is now! ^_^ And I will certainly never forget now that I live in the Eastern Standard Time zone.
