Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

If I put the clock in a box, and a random terminal event could happen, how would I know if time actually still existed?The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

If the clocks are travelling around the world you could optimise the speed for them to read the correct local time always."A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

Good point!Originally posted by PaddyYou are assuming that both clocks are stationary. If the clocks are travelling around the world you could optimise the speed for them to read the correct local time always.
A stopped clock in the right orbit could be right ALL day!
