Is this going to throw off Al Gore's global warming predictions?

This is really going to throw off the accuracy of my atomic watch. Can I get a refund?

Bush’s fault.

Well I know that I lost some time associated with the quake...
was watching to see HI get swallowed up and NOTHING...

I rather doubt it. Any downslipping of the ocean floor simply pushed the Andes higher.

As if there already weren’t enough milliseconds in the day as it is.

Didn’t the groundhog predict this?

Good.

Saturday's quake shortened the day by 1.26 microseconds. A microsecond is one-millionth of a second.

Another Yahoo article has it as 1.26 milliseconds.

So, which is it? This is important! I need to know how much my misery has been reduced each day - by the negligible one millionth of a second, or the more significant one thousandth of a second.

We are going to live longer because the days are shorter.
