Then what are you doing here? Why don't you go to your elected representatives in whatever country you call yours and lobby them to pass a law changing the basis of civil time in your country from UTC to TAI-33s? I'm equally baffled by those people who keep trying to make ITU hobble UTC. Those people are from the US government, aren't they? Then if they are the US government, the all-powerful government that doesn't give a flying rat's ass about anybody but themselves, why do they bother with ITU, why don't they just pass a law changing the US legal time to TAI-05:00:33 on the East Coast, TAI-06:00:33 Central, etc. Surely the all-powerful government could do this any moment without asking anyone, certainly not the common citizens?
