Midnight Time

On a somewhat related note to my last post – 12:01 is not the start of the day. The new day starts right at midnight, 12:00.
I heard an ad recently that something was going on sale as soon as possible on such-and-such a day, and the ad specifically said 12:01 AM. But what day is it between 12:00 and 12:01? If the current time is half a second after midnight, isn’t that the first part of the day? What about a quarter of a second? You could keep going and going and the only way to have a definitive answer is to say exactly 12:00, or 00:00 for our military friends.
And since 12:00 is midnight, it must be the start of the new day (i.e. it’s early, not late) and must be AM, not PM. Unless you use the military time of 24:00, in which case midnight is the end of the day.
There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
