Hi, Someone recently mentioned the phenomenon of all the clocks in a clock shop self synchronizing. My guess would be that this is due to the transmission of vibrations through the planks they sit on. Mind shift. Protons trapped in the van Allen belts will preces about the Earth's magnetic

Gents, I cannot takethis -any longer. Being a Jeweler who builds new technology particle accelerators and makes his own diamonds - I must correct the nonsense of clock groupself synchronization or CGSS. Most jewelers like all their clocks showing the same time, resetting them as often as
