@bibliolater I always get a frustrated "huh?" from my 17-year-old son when I tell him it's "quarter past" something or "twenty-five to" something. He wants it digital style: "something fifteen" or "something thirty-five." He finds my way of saying the time archaic. I think he can read an analog clock well enough. He just reads it in a different way from me.
@bodhipaksa I prefer the 'old way' but that is probably due to habit rather than anything else.
