The Foundations of the Second.

The Rule : Every Structure requires a foundation.

The Equations.

Introduction

Let us assume then that we have limited our recording capaity using
quantum computers and three new units have come into being. These
units are almost already into being and at current our technology
supports down to approx 3 Atoms per bit, or .333 bits per atom.

These units are - Bits/Atom Digit/Atom and Symbol/Atom

This means Bits per Atom, Digits per Atom and Symbol Per Atom. You
see, just like our MP3 files which record music at 197Kilobits per
Second, we must not forget that the MP3 file also has a mass.
According to my Hard drive on a clunkier technology which weighs .6kg
ang contains 2781197205504 bits a bit has a mass of 2.15 X
10^(-13)kgs.

As an architect, I am accustomed to the fact that my ruler, i.e. the
thing I am measuring with has a mass. If we were to count seconds with
a machine, we would also require a certain mass in order to keep
count, just like our ancient abacus beads.

The Equation.
