I monitor the traffic to the various web pages that I set up as a result of the leap seconds discussions. One of the more useful aspects of the server logs is the HTTP referrer string that often indicates what search query brought the web surfer to my page.
A recent referrer entry was http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?srch=105&FORM=AS5&q=EAL+time+scale which, as of this moment, shows that my page on time scales is the best match for someone searching for the Echelle Atomique Libre. I do not believe that my web page should be the principal authority on the products of the BIPM. I humbly request that members of the precision timekeeping community, especially any at the BIPM, enhance their web pages. It would be good for the web surfing public to have a more authoritative (and hopefully more accurate) website than my own detailing the inner workings of atomic time. -- Steve Allen UCO/Lick Observatory Santa Cruz, CA 95064 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Voice: +1 831 459 3046 http://www.ucolick.org/~sla PGP: 1024/E46978C5 F6 78 D1 10 62 94 8F 2E 49 89 0E FE 26 B4 14 93
