In what way is it not good enough? The neutrinos are apparently
arriving about 60 nanoseconds early, the distance is known, through
GPS to 10's of centimeters, and the time is synchronized, again
through GPS (although a second method is used as a double check) to
about 1 nanosecond. In what fashion is it 'not good enough'?
