Summary: What about relativistic effects?


	I should think that if and when there are airborne routers or
orbital routers (fuzzballs in space!) that Dave Mills is the man to do
the relativistic corrections to the clocks and time-servers.  He
certainly handled the leap-seconds crisis well, don't you think?  :-)
