I have always prefered using 24 hour time.  That may be because I have
worked in a mainframe environment for over 20 years and the job run times
are all in 24-hour format.  I think I have always prefered it, though.

I find it very odd when someone cannot understand time in that format.

Here, it is also called "military time," and you can get some strange
reactions from certain types of folks if they find that you are using it.
They seem suspicious of persons they think might have been in the military
(I have not been).  I have never really understood that, either.
