[amsat-bb] Why?

[Jeff Johns <jeffj@xxxxxxxxx>]

With all the talk about SWATCH here lately I find myself asking a question:

Why the heck does the world need 'Beat' time?

I always thought UTC did a pretty darn good job of keeping all of us, no
matter where in the world we are, synchronized and on schedule.

I just wish I had been smart enough to come up with a idea for a new 'time
scheme' and then commercialize it!
