I would read each and every word of a four page document, especially if it's finance related. Unfortunately, some people won't read anything longer than a tweet.

Love it! What's the cheapest clock you can purchase (used or new) where you can still do a similar experiment (i.e. that's accurate enough to measure dilatation over a day/week/month period of time)?

Good. This sums it up pretty well: I also think that it would have been appropriate to notify about the ulterior motive behind this defect report at the latest when the paper got published. This underhanded approach of reporti

I figured a timer usually counts down and has a start/stop button. A stopwatch counts up, but also has buttons. A clock it is.

Right. For Firefox, I can even remove that line and set the stylesheet using a `Link:` header. Unfortunately, that feature isn't widely adopted by other browsers.
