[time-nuts] [volt-nuts] Physics !

[Marv Gozum @ JHN]

Quite fascinating.  I look forward to a day physical constants can be 
made to an electrical equivalent, that can be transmitted and 
received just like a GPS disciplined clock, so anyone can recreate a 
standard locally with a level of precision one's equipment is capable 
of recreating, such as say with a 3D printer.

Its a long way off, but it would change manufacturing and the 
distribution of products, and  even high accuracy and precision 
devices as we know it.
