Maybe not, but the frequency of the resonance of
Cesium is a function of time, e.g. cycles/second.

Cecil:

I for one think it has already been shown, we simply do not understand
time. Given that is correct, how can we possibly know if the
"vibration" of cesium is a function of it--heck, maybe if we ever
achieve in stopping the vibs of cesium, time will stop? grin

The problem here is in construction of a "true ruler" to measure with
.... of course, we always have our "units" ...

Brett,

For someone with faux anonymity, you certainly work to drape yourself
in marginal pluralism.

Richard:

It is safe to call me John, I can guarantee you--that is my REAL first
name (well, Johnathan)--Smith is my "pen name."

I have used other "pen names" in the past ... (appears as if you have
been "one of my fans in the past"--though I don't remember you using
your correct name there, perhaps IRC?)

As to the latter, I have been "draped" in worse ...

Sure Brett,

You have no one to vouchsafe you. The problem with "anonymity" is
that you can neither substantiate what is real, nor repel what is
falsely applied - can you? (Attempts at either lack authenticity.)

It's pretty obvious that frequency is a function of time.
Velocity is a function of time. Time is also a function
of velocity. Velocity is a function of length. Length is
also a function of velocity. Go figger.

Cecil:

In our present use and construct of time, absolutely.

I have a bit easier "time" of "seeing" things "shorten" as velocity
increases, my feeble brain strives for even that. (waves shorten as
they are emitted by objects with velocity ...)

Still, I wonder ... and I know, that with a buck still won't even buy
you a decent cup of coffee.

Both time and length are also variables as a function of gravity. So, the only
thing we know is really that we don't know what we think we know ?????

And you know what they say about figures.....
Judging from the plot at
http://www.venganza.org/about/open-letter/
it's pretty obvious that for the last 200 years the global average
temperature has been a function of the number of pirates.
