Hello how may I help you? Please help me with time zones. What do you need to know? How do time zones work? I need more information to answer the question Why can't it just be the same time everywhere? That would be so much easier! it has to do with the rotation of the sun That makes sense. The sun is very powerful. When did time zones start? Other wise it would be noon eveywhere at the same time and some places it would be dark and some in the morning and so on That is a great point. 1883 Thanks!
