[time-nuts] New Scientist article on optical clocks

[Peter Vince]

The 7th of February edition of "New Scientist" has an article talking, in general
terms, about how time-keeping has improved, and how optical clocks are set to
supersede Caesium with accuracies of parts in 10^18.  The author, a freelance
writer, was reporting his talk with Patrick Gill, the head "Time Lord" at the
British "National Physical Laboratory".

The complete article can be read online on the New Scientist website:
