um, sounds like bullshit to me.

So now we are all growing older faster? (at least concerning traditional, non-atomic, time) And if days are shortening, and the Earth rotates in the same direction as its solar orbit, then the Earth is GAINING rotational inertia? My head hurts, physics majors - please explain

So if my math is correct - and it probably isn't - we lost 8.06 microseconds between the two? That's effed in the head.

who wants to come with me when the apocalypse happens? i'll be setting up camp somewhere in the appalachian trail.  i can also kill zombies, so if THAT one happens i'm your girl. no rapists need apply.
