Answer to Question 1

The minor uses do add up to substantial totals, but truly gigantic is
certainly an overstatement.

Answer to Question 2

Facilities that are built one-up from scratch in the field are much more expensive
to construct as discussed in Ch. 13 . It is easier to get replacement parts for modular
facilities. Additionally, factory-built plants that are discovered to have a problem will involve
an identical solution to each of the problems, fixing all at once.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
