OT: Time zone question

From:Mark J. Reed <markjreed@...>

Why the heck is Spain an hour east of Greenwich timezone-wise when
most of the country is geographically in the west?

Given the history between England and France, and their tussle over
who got to define the Prime Meridian, I can understand the French
wanting to be different out of sheer spite.  Something similar with
Spain?
