In the same spirit I'd like to introduce a new letter. The Letter "Th". By eliminating a stroke or two. In one year the English writing world can collectively save 30 billion seconds, which is 8,333, 333.33 hours, which is also 347,222 days, which is 951 years, by simply merging the two letters.

● www.GoliathFlores.com A little history of Watches: A watch is a timepiece worn on a person, as opposed to a clock which is not. The term now usually refers to a wristwatch, which is worn on the wrist with a strap, while a pocketwatch, the common type before World War 1, is carried in a pocket and often has an attached chain to lift it out. Watches evolved in the 1600s from spring powered clocks, which appeared in the 1400s. The first known use of a wrist watch was by the Brazilian aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont.
