[time-nuts] Scientists Build Atomic Clocks Accurate Enough to Measure Changes in Spacetime Itself

[Richard (Rick) Karlquist]

A little humor:

This situation reminds me of an old saying we had at HP:

How do you insult a clock engineer?

"Hey man, that's a great thermometer you designed!"

The new version of this is now:

"Hey man, that's a great accelerometer you designed".  :-)
