    Yeah. I think if someone had a sensible method for how we could switch from one to the other with minimal impact, it might work.

    What would very difficult for me would be the recalibration of my internal clock. Knowing a second is slightly shorter, and a minute is longer, and an hour is much longer, would be hell for a while.

    Unfortunately I think something that’s pretty hard coded into the society at this point is that a day should be able to divide by so we end up with the 8hr work, 8 hr rest, 8 hr sleep. I’d be interested in a 30hr day over a 10 hr day. But that one doesn’t make much sense either since it misses the mark on bringing tim fully into the 10 base metric system, but still has all the same troubles you’d encounter for getting people to switch.
