MIC CHECK! It is time to occupy this thread with something that is time-nutty.
The previous thread on gravity control of a pendulum clock was hijacked by Jim Palfreyman to a conflict on the metric system, that led to something completely off topic continuing under the SAME SUBJECT. Now John Forster seeks to introduce military conflict into this list with the false drone that the US deliberately let the Iranians have. Of course we came up with a story to make them believe they did it. Does that have anything to do with leap seconds? Determining the speed of neutrinos? Pushing back the limits of accuracy of atomic time? Using an ancient GPSB program to activate a board found on eBay? Searching for the perfect divider? John Ackerman, this list is too large. It needs pruning. We need more people to occupy this list with stuff that is on topic, rather than be driven away by people who crave conflict. Best wishes to all as the solemnity of the solstice approaches. The solstice, at least, is about real planetary time. Have at it, while you can. Bill Hawkins -----Original Message----- From: J.
