It's an exciting day to work for the Department of Energy. Congrats to our sister lab, LLNL which I learned today actually stands for "Lasers, Lasers, Nothing but Lasers".

I was reminded of when the center of the network was effectively the Bell System Reference Frequency, distributed from the Stratum 1 in Hillsboro, MO. Today, the former long-lines facility looks abandoned.
