Excuse me, just back from surgery and the anesthetic may have
lingering effects. Discussions like this help to pass the time.
I think you'd have to separately calibrate the fruit fly's optic nerve
to remove the effect. A quick google doesn't seem to find any published
information on the Allan deviation of the propagation through the system.
Do so and publishing the result would certainly confirm some folks
opinion about the "nut" part of time-nuts.
(I did find data on nerve propagation in general )
