The core discovery is nice, even if their problem isn't the there : Their clock is normal BUT their cells interpret it incorrectly, so the problem could be found elsewhere, like a bad clock multiplier when overclocking your PC (could result with it being slower or faster).

At least, now you know that the problem is not the "aging flag" itself, but something that's reading it.

Surveillance should be applied, 24/24, on each elected person FIRST, to make sure no corruption is done at this level.

Some police officers are now under such surveillance, and it help their works, and I just hope it'll go much more farther (Google Glass someone?)

We, citizens, should ALWAYS have the last words.

I'm pretty sure it's the exact opposite :

You take the same turn for 30 years now : YOU KNOW IT, so you optimize it a little bit (without thinking of course... it's a natural event here)... optimize it so much than it became inconsistent and risky... optimize it too much and... you know what I mean ;)

Start by reading and testing their 50$ cheapo robot : http://www.societyofrobots.com/

50$ isn't something that will make you broke, and you'll have a quickstart on electronic parts.
Then, if you wanna upgrade, go get an Arduino, and put it in your 50$ robots (now 80$robot ;) )
Them you can upgrade and add parts as you like, and all with a SMALL budget.

HAVE FUN!
