So how does this work, government officials are in charge of the coverup and these people have this job for life and when they retire they pass the secrets on to their replacements. These people are so loyal they never expose what they know to the press. Also, all the world's governments are in on the secret and although they can't agree on anything else, they do agree never to share what they know with the general population in the interest world peace? I think the same thing applies to ghosts. It's amazing what some people choose to believe.

Given that the full rotation of the earth on it's axis is, when divided by 24 gives us an hour of time. 24hrs = 1day = 1rotation

1orbit of the earth around the sun = 365 1/4 days = 1year

This can be viewed as a measure of time.

How accurate is the math? Is the timing still the same are we getting faster/slower?

Is the planet earth still on same angle of tilt along the axis (magnetic poles)?

Would it remain accurate?

An Electrolytic Capacitor in series with a Resistor attachced to the
base of a transistor would provide a simple timing circuit, yes? What
is the formula to derive the needed Farads and Ohms?

I have never seen ants sleeping, or bees, or cockroach or any insects. But I guess they must sleep like animals.

At 20 degrees C, a pipe open at both ends resonates at a frequency of 440 Hertz. At what frequency does the same pipe resonate on a partucularly cold day when the speed of sound is 3% lower than it would be at 20 degrees C.
