NIST station WWV and sister stations are among the oldest radio stations in the United States, having been in continuous operation since May 1920. The station has transmitted the official US Time for nearly 100 years, and is an instrumental part in the telecommunications field, ranging from broadcasting to scientific research and education. Additionally, these stations transmit marine storm warnings from the National Weather Service, GPS satellite health reports, and specific information concerning current solar activity, and radio propagation conditions. These broadcasts are an essential resource to the worldwide communications industry. This petition requests continued funding of these stations be maintained into the 21st century and beyond to ensure future operations. Link Th amount for these operations is next to nothing.

Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | ||

Good. How do you have a blind trust with the guy’s name on the building in 24’ high letters? Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Signed. There are a lot of "atomic" clocks and wrist watches that will mysteriously stop being "atomic" if those time signals cease. "America is at that awkward stage.

I don't often *bump* threads, but this is pretty important for such a relatively low-cost Federal program. If you don't think so: Just wait and see what happens if it goes away.
