Thanks, figured someone who reads this list may be connected there... not like precision timekeeping is a huge community.

I too would love the same oppertunity. http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/tours-events/tour-information CURRENT TOUR STATUS We are currently not accepting any new requests for tour reservations due to the pending effects of the Federal sequestration beginning on or about March 1. In the event of sequestration all tours beginning in April will be cancelled due to staff furloughs. --- I note that JPL just cancelled/postponed its annual open house for the same reason. If someone who works at USNO is willing to take you around, that's another matter, but bear in mind that visit requests often take several days (if not a week or more) to process for most government labs. ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
