speed up the frequency of the pulses, or ticks, produced by the clock

Whoa! Is this correct? Wouldn't the clock slow down if anything? And then consider that the radial acceleration would be cyclical and cancel itself out. Only the initial tangential acceleration would count. For this to work, the clock would have to be accelerated to a tangential velocity and stay there. How fast will the clock be moving in the centrifuge? I would estimate no more than 700 mph due to sonic shock. They would have to spin it for a year to see anything, and even then it would be only a fraction of a second.

I actually think I understand what you just said. Let me get this straight.

If you're correct it would take Michael Jackson aprroximately 300 years to get his original nose back.
