Winter Riddle

Alright here comes the next one for you.....

At exactly twelve noon there is one fly in a room. Every minute the number of flies in the room doubles...12:01=2, 12:02=4, etc. At exactly 1:00 pm the room is completely full of flies.

At what time will the room be exactly half-full??

I would have liked to say I knew and was just too late, but I wass till pondering it when I saw the answer. :( I am not very good at these!

So, I was totally going to say 12:30. This riddle reminds me of taking math class, and how I felt about the tests. I've never been to good at math!
