    It is so strange to have so many time differences ,but we can communicate as if it were one.

    Well I read up a little and it looks like since there are no time zones there people usually use the time of the place they are from or are working for, say like their University etc...

    As a practical matter, having all of the time zones means there is really no time zone for the polar regions. In Antarctica, the U.S. stations uses New Zealand time because most Americans who go to Antarctica for the U.S. Antarctic Program fly to and from there via Christchurch.


    Since the only station at the South Pole is the U.S. station, the time used there is New Zealand time.


    Other nations tend to use their home time zones in Antarctica, which makes radio and e-mail contacts simpler.


    The permanent research stations in the Arctic are in countries, such as the Barrow Science Center in Barrow, Alaska, and these use the local time. When researchers venture out onto the Arctic Ocean ice, they can use any time they wish. But, in most cases it's probably easier to use the time for the institution, such as a university, that you are working for.

    No DST in Arizona! Tumbleweeds can't tell time anyway...If we moved the clocks ahead it would just be hot later in the afternoon than it already is.
