>BTW, is there anything actually informative in the youtube video? Yes. This is what he said: "For the first years we won't notice, but as I said before, after a hundred years the deviation will be probably in the order of one minute and thirty seconds, and a quarter of an hour after one thousand years, and maybe one hour after three thousand or four thousand years." The ABC reporter got it right - he asserts linearity. I'm amazed that noone on this list picked up that glaring error. Approximately one hour after 600 years is the canonical figure.
