Time Zones and such. (this thread started at 2:30 am, EST)

[Sunrazor]

Ummm... so, it's 2:30 am, and I'm not thinking clearly, and this struck me:

I know that we're not all in one time zone. I know for a FACT that there are some west-coasters here.

How come, then, we all keep the same schedule? At least, it sure seems that way. I've noticed that peak time is from around 7 to 11 pm (EST, again), which would make sense, as it's after everyone's home and had had dinner. But this suggests that we're all on the same clock, and I KNOW we're not.
It just... struck me as odd.
Maybe I should go to bed. I'm finding it difficult to type, now.

Just ignore my random, late-night rambling.

I've been thinking about this as well. For me though, who lives in Sweden and are 6-10 hours a head of most of you it's the most boring time here when I need it most, when I'm at work. Now it's 8.30 am here and everyone is on their way to bed and I just got up and to work....

Yupp, swedish I am.

It is kind of confusing for me with the time. Cause when I think it must have been posted alot of new posts, non have arrived and then I find out that the hours I've been away is when all of you are a sleep, like from 10 am-5pm here. One good thing about it though is that I've started to enjoy my late shifts at work more cause that's when it's most hectic here...
