You can always move to the Eastern United States! It's pretty crowded here in the Mudcat Central area, but I hear there's still some room up WYSIWYG's way... :-D

But those of us who live in Mudcat's time zone still have to do the math -- in the other direction -- when conversing with 'Catters in other time zones who may be having afternoon tea, an evening meal, or a midnight snack when we're having breakfast. As JohnInKansas says, it's a matter of remaining aware of the rest of the world and the fact that each person in it is living according to his or her own daily cycle... which may even be unusual for his or her own time zone!
