Greg,

I think my new reduction (message Atomic clock to the list)
shows beyond any reasonable doubt that the clock was 1 min ahead.

It only remains to understand how is such thing possible.
(And then to convince Bill that it actually happened:-)
It seems to me that an "atomic watch" is a usual quartz watch which is
automatically adjusted by radio signans. How frequently?

Now an ordinary quartz watch (non-atomic) will go away few seconds
per YEAR. So how exactly this happens that an adjustment of such watch
leads to 1 minute error? Can you describe the procedure of adjustment?
I cannot imagine this procedure.


Alex
