   watches

   Watches are inconsistent with Fine Woodworking. Our pieces, afterall, are timeless.

   Ralph, I wonder if an inconsistant watch is even right two times a day?

   Otoh, a timeless piece is always right.

   tics talk

   They say a stopped (analog) watch is accurate twice a day. Assuming, that is, it's not a 24-hour dial. If my logic is correct, an inconsistent watch would have the same property. A stopped digital watch, however, might work for fine woodworking, since no display would be the equivalent of being timeless. Then, there's the whole relativity thing, with time slowing down as we travel faster. Plus, there's the unobserved falling tree in the forest question - what does time do when we're not measuring it?  I think it's time for me to take a nap.  ;-)

   We seem to have the watch thing covered

   Anyone know where a good source of pirated downloadable books would be?  Prefferably ones that utterly violate copyright law and lead me to websites that will invariably compromise the security of my computer?
