I understand the cartoon at the beginning; but, it will take me a very, very 
long time to understand the concepts of the paper!

Hi George, welcome aboard. If you are a beginner about time and frequency
don't forget to get and read what was pointed out to be our introduction to
the subject http://gpstime.com/files/tow-time2011.pdf written by Tom Clark
and Rick Hambly.

I joined the list at the suggestion of Bill, Wb6BNQ.

I am currently experimenting with several frequency standards, an Rb and an 
OCXO.  While I feel that I am able to measure frequencies with reasonable 
accuracy, I have no way of accurately determining time, so have ordered a 
T-Bolt.  I expect that to be here in about 2 weeks.

The big question is "why am I doing this"?  Just because I can.

Hi, George

Is there anything that distinguishes you from the thousand others on this
list?

What is there about time that interests you? That makes you a nut?

Do you lean towards theory or the soldering iron? Is bit twiddling your
interest?

Assuming that you have followed human nature and collected stuff that might
be
interesting, what have you collected? Who will throw it in the dumpster when
you die?

If you are completely new to this, where would you like to start? Something
cheap
from an "auction" site or a new hydrogen maser?

Don't mind me, I've been around too long.
