No, actually military time is not better.  Yes, in military time we use the same abbreviations for minutes and hours as we do for seconds, but that's not because it's “better” -- it's because it's the same as we have always used.

Well, what most people would mean by that is that using “military time” means using time based on a 24 hour clock, like what we have in the U.S. Right? And that when you say "military time" you mean only time like that. But I think you want to know about some of the weird things
