Two people are talking on the phone long distance.

One is in an East Coast state of the U.S., the other is in a West Coast state of the U.S.

The first asks the other, “What time is it?”

He hears the answer and says, “That’s funny. It’s the same time here!”.

Neither one of them were mistaken about the time.

How is this possible?
