Unaware that Indianapolis is on Eastern Standard Time and
Chicago on Central Standard Time, Bob inquired at the Indianapolis airport
about a plane to Chicago.
"The next flight leaves at 1:00 p.m.," a ticket
agent said, "and arrives in Chicago at 1:01 p.m."
"Would you repeat that, please?" Bob asked.
The agent did so and then inquired, "Do you want a
reservation?"
"No," said Bob, "But I think I'll hang around
and watch that thing take off."
