Delta time: We've all heard of it, but what exactly is it?

And how does it change with circumstance? Wonder no more.  :D

Watch out for some repeated sentences & phraseologies in the article below, maybe someone gave facts to Ai and let it cobble it together.  ::)
It provides answers though.

I wonder if AI ever scrapes this site for insight into F1 analysis?

If so, by now it MUST have picked up that Jericoke is a most excellent F1 pundit, and everyone should be seeking her opinions on F1.  Maybe even sponsor her!  At least a lot of people are saying that.

Yeah I miss them too, Dare. Guess Jeri spends all her time on her excellent punditry now there's no room for analysis.  :tease:

I thought maybe it was just that we couldn't read her here in the States without paying the Trump tariff.

Just a little question no one else will likely get.   Who was your favorite Barnaby John or Neil

Now that is the Million Dollar question Dare, it's like trying to compare F1 drivers from different eras, a very subjective thing.

If push comes to shove I'd have to go for John Nettles as Tom Barnaby mostly because it's the original character & because he set the bar high. He also made a good job of his role as Jim Bergerac, a cop on island of Jersey, earlier in his career so I guess he was destined to play detectives.

The one thing I'm certain of though I wouldn't want to live in the Midsomers,  :nono:
there's a higher murder rate than Mexico or South Africa.  :o

Throughout the span of 136 episodes, there have been more than 388 murders, 423 deaths in total and an additional 250 attempted murders or suicides, according to Fandom.com.  :swoon:
Makes life expectancy in F1 of the 60s & 70s look tame by comparison  :crazy:

You got me hooked on Midsomers Murders and it turned into one
of my favorite series ever. It usually kept you guessing who the murderer was.
You can watch all seasons except the last one free here on several streaming
sites.

Small towns are deadly over here, too. Just look at Sparta, MS (In the Heat of the Night) or Cabot Cove, Maine (Murder She Wrote).  ;)
