Ken

The GPS inaccuracies are due to several reasons:
1. the clock within all handhelds is a quartz clock, the big units use very expensive clocks that measure nanosecond increments.
2. the geometry of the sats affect the ability to precisely measure time and place
3. the sampling frequency of the GPS for position makes for a large averaging.

Ken's idea on plastic cups and bowls is spot on, also makes for easier cleaning. What about a green scrub pad?

How's your daughter and what happened, keep us posted! Got a question to the Universe...why the hell does things like this always pop up before a planned trip?
