What is short, medium, and long?
Radio astronomers use H-masers. Can I assume that they are mid-term and that
H-masers are better than Rb (at mid-term)?
Does the classic ADEV graph contain all the information, or is it making an
assumption that is valid in most cases that allows it to compress/hide lots
of information that is interesting for only a few obscure types of
applications?
