The table turned 'next week's sale' into a time people could plan around.

The official global time-zone table gave the same opening moment as 8 p.m. on December 6 in San Francisco, 11 p.m. on December 6 in New York, and noon on December 7 in Hong Kong. The Night Watchman circled the entry for his own time zone and warned the group against sharing a single row without its place and date.
The table turned 'next week's sale' into a time people could plan around.
