I'm still wondering what's wrong with the idea of having a timing
system that is comprised of discrete sensors that receive a common
clock signal -- and then transmit not only a sensor closure and the
time at which the event happened. Since all sensors would be using
the same clock, continuously synched together, there wouldn't be any
delays for wire length of transmission lag. Mike, you've said this
won't work. Why don't I agree -- what's wrong with the concept?
