Isn’t that every night this year?“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

And... Since we are talking about military time I thought I would post this oldie but goodie from 2014.
It is about a local WW2 Marine Corp bet who was active duty Marine Corp from 1942 to 1972 then worked as a department of defense civilian employee at one of the local Marine Corp bases from 1972 until 2014. They guy was in constant federal service from 1942 until 2014 when he finally retired at age 89.
Do you think any millennials would do that kind of service?

24 hour time format is the standard way to write time. Is it just the US and Canada that thinks of it as “military”?One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

For example, my laptop, phone, kitchen clock, etc all say 23:18, not 11:18. (Where digital).One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.Comment

Imagine if Oerdin had lived in 1212.
On 12 December he could chiselled a notice on the castle walls. It is now 12 seconds past 12 minutes past 12 o'clock on the twelfth day of the twelfth month of the 1212. That is 12:12:12 of 12.12.1212.
Oerdin missed his big chance for this poast by 1018 years.Comment

Sadly, natural selection for survival of such an approach would surely be disappointing at best.
