Right now it's 08:10 in the PM.

We always record the time in 24 hour format so it's really 20:10.

Which do you prefer?

I hate it when people say "army time"!

and now I use 24h at work, so no preference really...

:thumbsup:

Now, I prefer 12hour time, because I'm used to it, but objectively, I see why 24hr is better.

Military time is acceptable.

We prefer 24 hour time.

100 unit hours even.

Speaking of which, I'm five minutes (8 units) late for my dinner!

Oh damn!

I guess I use both depending on who I'm talking with. 12 hour with most people, but 24 hour time with a few.

no preference. It's easy enough to me to know what time it is either way.... but I will say that it's easier to talk to most people in 12hr because they are stupid and don't get that you just gotta subtract 12 from anything 13 and over.
