Most 7/11s in Thailand have a coin-operated scale outside the store. My weight differs at each one and my friend Jamie Parker has theorized that the fluctuations are due to slight differncne in the intensity of the gravitational pull along the surface of the earth.
No clock seems to be running on the same time and Jamie furthers his theory by saying that time varies from place to place allowing you to time-travel simply by crossing the street.
The Thai Ministry of Metrology has ordered the entire Thai nation to function under TST Thai Standard Time, which is seven hours ahead of GMT, and tomorrow all clocks will legally have to maintain the new TST. This temporal ruling will be applied to all businesses servicing their public via computer.
The new TST is aimed at cyber-criminals such as porno surfers and under-age internet game players. Names and IDs will have to be presented at all internet cafes from now on. Failure will result in fines ranging from 100,000-200,000 baht
No one is charge can explain the origins of a rumor that the clock would be 30 minutes different from the present time.
Instructions for installing the official time on computers are posted on the Hydrographic Department's website at http://www.navy.mi.th/hydro/time
Everyone set your clocks right or else.
