Hi Adrian, FYI -- Bill's also a long-time member of time-nuts. And he's also one of the reasons there is a time-nuts group. In the mid 90's I met Bill (and also Corby) through classified ads in Nuts & Volts magazine. Long story, but it was then that I learned it was "ok" to be interested in both vintage mechanical / pendulum clocks and also modern quartz / atomic clocks. His pendulum clocks are world-class masterpieces and his home atomic time lab was the inspiration for mine.
