I think the worry with the kilogram artifact is that temperature changes might affect the surface and or hydrogen absorption. All of the kilogram artifacts are slowly changing weight (Can't remember which direction though) and that's why there is so much focus on a different definition of the kilogram. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list [email protected] https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
