I wonder if the IC in the clock would be advanced by 4 seconds if an equal amount of force was applied via a multi-ton press.

No, it won't.

Yes, that's the problem, isn't it? A clock isn't time, it's a mechanical device that measures time. Has your experiment affected time, or just monkeyed with a watchspring?

Sounds like the government passing the cost of its programs to the future. Politicians have been "advancing time" for years.

He was much old then, he's younger than that now.

well he does have a Delorean that is cabable of time travel. He and his young protege Marty will be traveling back in time.

Silly me, I thought a clock was a measure of time, not time itself.

I wonder if the clock goes backwards if they spin the centrifuge the other way?

Dolz, who has been a lecturing theoretical physicist for nine years, really doesn't know where his experiment could lead.

Perhaps he should go forward in time to find out.
