Yeah, I'm sure they're willing to go without GNSS, mobile phones, Internet and all this new-fangled stuff. In fact, I'm quite sure they would be perfectly happy with only old-fangled stuff, and they're cursing everytime they see a fangler[1]. Ignorance is never good policy. Poul-Henning [1] If something can be "new-fangled" then obviously somebody "fangled" it, and that person must by necessity be a "fangler". -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 p...@freebsd.org | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ LEAPSECS mailing list LEAPSECS@leapsecond.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/leapsecs
