I guess you wouldn't like my plan for the metric 10 hour day!
So I'm not the only crazy one in that regard. I was thinking 10 hours, 100 minutes, 100 seconds. Each second is 0.864 of our current second. I can't dicideon time zones though. If there are 10 of them they would be huge, and the light differance from one side to another would be too much I think. If there were 20 they would be offset by only 1/2 hour, which could get confusing, but I think it would be better this way. The whole process would work great for space if commercialization ever takes off.
