[time-nuts] Greenwich Timekeeping

[Dave Martindale]

I wish it was coming to Canada.  But according to
http://www.sourcewire.com/news/85588/ships-clocks-stars-exhibition-in-greenwich-ends-sunday-january-4#.VRN-O_nF-uM,
it is heading to two sites in the USA (Folger Shakespeare Library in
Washington DC and Mystic Seaport Museum in Connecticut) plus the Australian
National Maritime Museum.

Perhaps a trip to Conecticut is in order this fall ...
