I just happened to look in a old World Atlas at a map giving the World Time Zones. It was color coded with four colors for the time zones. Standard Time Zone for even-numbered hours from Greenwich time. Standard Time Zone for odd-numbered hours from Greenwich time. Time varies from he standard time zone by half hour. Time varies from he standard time zone by other than half hour. My question is: Does these half hour time zones effect any type of navigation... Land or Sea. Still...............
