Rather than display the date in 24-hour format, why not instead show something like "18 minutes ago"? Instructions and details here: http://hartshorne.ca/2005/07/25/more_weather_hacking/

I’m in the UK, and I much prefer the 24 hour clock.

However, that’s because when I was younger I spent most of my time lying in front of the fire watching TV, and got my time from the VCR…

I think most of us guys in the UK prefer 12 hour time too.

But does it work in metric time?

And if you prefer to leave in the “:” with the 24-hour display, change the last line to:

h + ‘:’ + m;

Anyway, thanks Eric (and John)!
