Okay, time to close the loop on another puzzle/question/thing. The last answer we had was that each day of the week lasts for 48 hours, and I said that it was really close to the complete answer. Recap; each day begins in the first time zone west of the International Date Line (IDL), which is time zone UTC+12 (12 hours ahead of Greenwich). 24 hours later that first hour of the day has made its way around to the time zone to the east of the IDL, UTC-12. And then each of the 24 hours of that day will pass in that zone, for a total of 48 hours. With me so far?

Then a couple of island nations messed it up by re-defining their time zones. Some, just on our side of the IDL, preferred to be on the same day of the week as New Zealand, for example, for administrative and commercial reasons. Most notably, in 1995 the nation of Kiribati solved the problem of having some of its more easterly islands on a different calendar date than the rest of the nation by redefining their time zones as UTC+13 and UTC+14 instead of UTC-11 and UTC-10 respectively. So this 2-hour detour of the IDL means that each day of the week actually starts 2 hours earlier in parts of Kiribati.

So to answer the original question, 'Wednesday' actually lasts 50 hours.

Wow. That's intriguing. Got more?
