I was lurking hoping for some amazing idea that would help me explain (in simple and interesting terms) what I do, firstly you need to know my company is the local rep for Symmetricom in Australia. So when asked what I do for a living, you should see the eyes glaze over; so normally easier to just say no you first! I thought this thread was going to be my saviour! Sadly not to be. lol Chris -----Original Message----- From: time-nuts-boun...@febo.com [mailto:time-nuts-boun...@febo.com] On Behalf Of Chris Stake Sent: Thursday, 29 March 2012 12:31 PM To: 'Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement' Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Best reason jim77...@gmail.com said: So when a member of the general public says: Why do we need really accurate clocks?
