I've been using 24 hour time almost exclusively for several years now. The switch was a no-brainer for me -- tacking on AM or PM is silly, and the math is easier this way. However, I wasn't raised with it, and of course I'm surrounded by less enlightened systems, so to my great shame I still find myself regularly thinking in 12 hour time.

I was just working on someone else's computer, when I glanced at the clock. It read 2:50, and I was momentarily confused at it suddenly being late at night. Woot! About time I started to internalize this. Now to stop thinking of pressure as PSI...

The Washington State Supreme Court will announce their ruling on Andersen, et al. v. King County tomorrow morning, a completely ridiculous 16 months after the case was argued.

We should have been first, but second to allow gay marriage would be pretty cool too. Here's hoping. It sure would be nice to get this behind us and move on to whatever the next big civil rights issue will be. Go go progressive forces of modern history!

Update: ...dammit.
