With today's clock technology, it would be easy enough to build clocks
to run at varying speeeds, so that sunrise is always 6 am, the sun is
always highest at noon, and sunset is always 6 pm.  Of course people
would have to get used to the idea that more can be done during a
daylight hour in the summer than in the winter.  Speed limits would
also have to be adjusted, since 40 miles per hour on a summer night
is a lot faster than 40 miles per hour on a winter night.  Radio
frequencies likewise, and a few other things.
