yeah your right

but according to this new process
that nanosecond has been increased or decreased doh :wall:
hard concept to grasp

with faster light pulses

as described here

Ahhhh, but the speed of light has not changed, just the interval between pulses. This increases throughput (how much you can stuff through within a certain measure of time) but not the speed of light.

Speed of light is 186,000 miles per second if you were curious.


I have lots of other little tidbits of useless information.

I wish I had a nanosecond from Grace.
