∙ 13y agoThere is this thing called the Sun. When you look at it you can see colours flashing! This thing called the Earth rotates around the Sun. And guess what Jeremiah, we live on the Earth. So when one half of the world is not facing the Sun it's dark. So to coincide time with light, we made time zones. Any more questions little Billy?
