Good Evening Mr.Williams, Enjoyed the little view of the new office space. The clock situation still seems to need some adjustments. I wonder if anyone will let you know what city the "mystery clock" tells time for. And if you have correspondents in Kabul it would be important to know what the time would be. The showing of average desk items was not too interesting, but I guess I was expecting more. Anyway, hope to see more next time. Thank you Mr.Williams.  

Brian - I just caught up with this video this morning, right after I had read through stories about the bug game in Cleveland.  Mysterious things are happening.....but I'm sure you can find someone to synchronize the clocks.  Now, about the midges..........

That is so funny!  Its neat seeing the behind the scenes videos! I have one of those clocks and it is always on time... That is really crazy that those are so off...

Hi Brian

I'm no expert on these things, but I believe in order for the "atomic" clocks to work, they need to be able to receive the "atomic" time signal...
...watching the video, they are awfully far into the building - I can't imagine that they can receive the signal they need to work.

Here's a suggestion - you'd need to run an antenna wire (which I believe they come with) from each clock to the window.  This will either destroy the aesthetic of the 'wall of plasmas' you've got going there, or enhance it...
or... move the clocks closer to the window.

Maybe in later blogs you could try pulling the clocks off the wall and placing them by the window for the day, and see if they self-calibrate.

The unlabelled clock could be left behind as a 'control' clock... and serve as a reminder of a simpler time.

We're all big fans of the blog - please keep us posted on the clock situation
(though we'd be more worried about the missing ceiling tiles)

All the best,

Neil, London, UK.

Brian Williams is the best - sense of humor, not full of himself - I love his reporting and especially like seeing uplifting stories at the end of the newscast.  I wouldn't consider watching another network's nightly news.

My husband and I were watching the news tonight and Brian read a story about a woman being the first American to command the Space Station.  They proceeded to show her picture but never gave her name!  Who is she?

I am a big fan of Brian Williams,   But the new sidebars that have been added when broadcasting content are very distracting. IMHO!  The colors are garish and I find the motion very distracting.
Just one persons opinion.  Keep up the good work.  Still the best evening news spot.
