I had nothing to do with the election (other than being a candidate), but I'd
like to point out that when I see time given as a four-digit number without a
colon, I know it is military time. Consequently 0800 is 8:00AM. Is this a
US-only convention? Or perhaps just not widely know? Having said that, I agree
with you about the time zone.
