If a freak accident changed the Earths rotation to a 25 hour day, then it should change. But that's unlikely.

How can reality benefit?

I agree, so why bother changing a day to 25-hours to be more "efficient?"

I definitely agree. It seems we have more-or -less similar views, webtaz.

I worked a rotating shift schedule and it was quite stressful. It was not like this 25 hour day idea but I wonder if similar problems might arise. My schedule was four days on pm shift, one day off, four days on midnight shift, one day off, four days on day shift, four days off. It sounds like it would work OK, but it could really screw with your sleep schedule. You end up feeling like you have perpetual jet lag. The 25 hour day may not have this problem but it would be something to experiment with to find out.

Keeping a city going 24/7 I like, but I would be interested to see how some "mom and pop" stores would be able to operate.
