Re: [time-nuts] WIRED Time Nuts, NPR
I think you were just great. The Bryant Park personalities seem to adopt this position that they use a lot of technology, but they'll act like a dufus if they actually discuss some technology. They like to say blog a lot, but never with understanding about how internet tech works. I think it makes it really difficult for BPP to talk to people that want to talk about how things work, they would rather be amazed by something than understand it. It's disappointing, but I do listen to BPP in the afternoon if I'm working in the lab. It was a pleasant surprise to hear you serendipitously. jeff Tom Van Baak wrote: Following the WIRED article, here's an NPR time nuts interview: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=17345235 Not sure it came out quite right; I can see now that talking live with off-the-wall questions is a bit more difficult than slowly composing/editing email or web pages.

Re: [time-nuts] WIRED Time Nuts, NPR
I think you did great! It's too bad you didn't have more time (ironically) to talk about other stuff. I never heard these Bryant Park people before but they sound more like ipod techies more than, true, engineering techies-- it's all good though. - Original Message - From: Tom Van Baak [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: John Ackermann N8UR [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Rick Karlquist [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement time-nuts@febo.com Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2007 15:20 Subject: Re: [time-nuts] WIRED Time Nuts, NPR Following the WIRED article, here's an NPR time nuts interview: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=17345235 Not sure it came out quite right; I can see now that talking live with off-the-wall questions is a bit more difficult than slowly composing/editing email or web pages.

Re: [time-nuts] WIRED Time Nuts
Here's a time-related observation. As Andy Warhol specified, this could be your 15 minutes of fame. Does anyone on the list have an accurate way to measure fame minutes? Good article, though.
