> If you need to coordinate time between different places, you can use UTC instead of mean solar time. That is what UTC is for, and UTC can be useful for other purposes too. When specifying the time you can write "Z" on the end to indicate UTC.
You can, but 1) it requires translating two local time zones to UTC, then translating them back, and 2) Nobody does it; the only time I see people use UTC are in logs (a good place to use it); I doubt many outside certain technical fields even knows what it is.
