I think the U.N. ought to pass a resolution to change "Greenwich Mean Time" to "Greenwich Kind Time." Think about it...with all the violence and meanness going on in the world, maybe part of it is due to the subliminal affect of our time standard's name. We could change the psyche of the whole human race by instituting Greenwich Kind Time. And we could have a U.N. sponsored brain washing crusade that would point out the change and publicize it to all the nations of the world!! We'd have the happiest Global Village on the planet. Oh, yeah...guess that's redundant, Eh?!I also think we should pass a U.N. joint resolution (I've often wondered what gets smoked to produce a "joint" resolution) to pronounce "Greenwich" properly. If "sandwich" is correctly said, then "Green-witch" should be correct, not "Gren-itch." And, given the rise in popularity of the Green Movement of environmentally-correct thinking, "Green-witch Kind Time" would really reinforce our post-Edenic need to take care of this mortal coil on which (notice the pronunciation) we're shuffling.
Got time for tree hugs? ;P
