    Why does Australia have 3 time zones (4 if you include EDST) - why doesn't Australia have just the one?

    C'mon Clunkie, answer that!! lol

    Surely the problem there is not the time that the kids are on the bus, but that the school bus does not have air conditioning!!??

    yeah clunk they should all come into our time slot..Most of our trading is done with Asian countries and there on the same time frame as us...
    Zso would that mean that eastern staters wouldn't go to work till about 10 in the morning and knock off at about 7 at night...
