I've kept my watch on GMT since 1966.  Thus, I've gotten so I can
read an analog clock face showing GMT for most US time zones.  It's more
difficult in Europe with only a 1 or 2 hour difference (and I don't
get much practice thereabouts), and impossible (for me) with digital
displays.

I had the revelation to adopt this bizarre affectation when I was
hitching a ride with a real old geezer about this time 18 years ago.
I tried to make conversation about setting the clock back, and he
said to me: "You know, we used to say, 'There's Mr. Roosevelt's time,
and there's God's time.'"
