Hi gang,
   From Physics Today, Oct. '99, p68:
  "The American Geophysical Union and the Geochemical Soc. have created a=
n
on-line journal dedicated to interdisciplinary research in geochemistry a=
nd
geophysics.  One aim of "Geochemistry, Geophysics Geosystems" -or G-Cubed=

for short-is to keep publication costs and subscription rates low...Anoth=
er
reason for going all-electronic is to enable authors to publish very larg=
e
data sets which paper journals could never afford to print.  Access to th=
e
journal will be free at least the first year.  The first issue is set to =
be
posted on the journal's Web site      www.g-cubed.org     in early Dec.,
prior to the AGU's fall meeting and the journal will be updated weekly."
   Another URL I have found useful is    joe.mehaffey.com
This contains an enormous amount of info on GPS.  There is an informative=

discussion on GPS timing in the Information Section dated 18 Apr. '99.
  I bought a digital wrist watch (Zeit, $110 incl. shipping) about 3 week=
s
ago which uses timing signals from WWVB (60 kHz) in Colorado.
It works perfectly here in NJ (but I don't like digital watches).  It has=

not been off WWV by more than 0.5 sec. (the limit of checking) and it
skipped Sept. 31 like it should.  I can hardly believe that it can reciev=

a sig. at 60kHz (wave length about 3 miles) but it does.  See this at   =
