Don't laugh (well if you have to lol) but when I first arrived in the US from Ireland I couldn't wrap my mind around why the microwave refused to show the correct time. I fought with it, read over the manual again and again until I realized!.. I can't set the time to 15:30 (or what ever the time was) because in America it could only ever be.. 03:30 and AM/PM was optional unless it was an alarm clock lol! I also found on my old car which did indicate AM/PM the only way to change AM to PM was to roll past 12 o'clock.
Having said that biggie does have a point about looking outside lol!
