Context: And while I sat there responding to each of them , I wondered what they thought of Americans , our country , our nation , our economy , our democracy . I wondered if they were working , sleeping , studying . I wanted to write " good morning " as it was early for me ( east coast time ) - and then I realized , I had no idea what time zone they were in .
