If you really believed that, you would not have disingenuously trimmed context 
from my earlier post by removing the text which directly addressed the argument 
you then made.

No, you didn't. What you and Warner HAVE demonstrated is that you _chose_ the 
wrong time coordinate system for your systems/applications. Instead of using 
TAI, which doesn't have leap seconds, you chose to use UTC, which does. You're 
now arguing that the single differentiating factor between UTC and TAI should 
be removed to resolve issues cause by your poor choice. You've offered nothing 
in the way of rational argument as to why that should happen, except that it 
would be convenient for YOU. That is not rational.

>You _really_ have no idea Mike...

This again? I predict Godwin's law will shortly need to be invoked.
