who cares if it's a billionth of a second it still exists. That's over-analysation of a definition. We all know what people mean when they say noon.

Yes, I'm aware that we all know what people mean when they say noon. But if you'll read Ian's original post, he is claiming that the am/pm convention is flawed. My "over analysing" proves that the am/pm convention is not wrong. Hell, I say I'll meet someone at noon when I'm talking about my lunch break at 11:30.

Non last no time by definition. In speech, the word 'noon' is very non-time specific.

p.s. Sarah, don't call me an idiot.

Yeah... but then, you have to do all the "subracting by 12 action" because everyone else works with 12-hour clock... and my math sucks. ;)
