Here in Norway we use 24 hour clock, so I get of work at 16:00. But if people ask me in person, I say I get off at 4. So usually we write in 24, but talk in 12. If somebody asked me what time it is, I would never tell the time as 14:30 but half past 2 (or half 3 as we say it). Not sure if this is of any help, but I feel a lot of the yanks think we all go around talking like US Military "1400 hours, hut hut".
