Bro. Fleming made a proposal 121 years ago today… from Wikipedia.org:
After missing a train in 1876 in Ireland because its printed schedule listed p.m. instead of a.m., he proposed a single 24-hour clock for the entire world, located at the centre of the Earth and not linked to any surface meridian.[2] At a meeting of the Royal Canadian Institute on February 8, 1879 he linked it to the anti-meridian of Greenwich (now 0°). He suggested that standard time zones could be used locally, but they were subordinate to his single world time. He continued to promote his system at major international conferences, including the International Meridian Conference of 1884. That conference accepted a different version of Universal Time, but refused to accept his zones, stating that they were a local issue outside its purview. Nevertheless, by 1929 all of the major countries of the world had accepted time zones.
On February 4th at Ivanhoe’s next regular meeting, one of our Past Masters will be giving a presentation on “e-Masonry — How the Internet has affected the Craft” and highlight some of the tools and websites out there about the Craft and how you can get involved.
