3 whole microseconds! woohoo! Extra holiday time, no, wait a minute ---
that means I have to work an extra 3 microseconds every single day. that's
no good. If I set up a large gyroscope in my back yard and attach it to a
motor, can I speed the earth up again?

What will happen this time?


According to some reports, the day might have been shortened by 3
microseconds.

Again, I caution you to remain calm. Stay in your home(s) until this all
gets
sorted out.

Wouldn't want you out there running around not knowing what time it really
is.
