I think a reference to Grace Hopper is unneeded; I have removed it. (or not fully explained in THIS article)

"it takes light a nanosecond to go a foot (in a vacuum, slower in copper)" doesn't make sense since light's speed in copper is zero because it's an opaque substance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Martnym ( talk • contribs) 09:05, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
Ladies and gentleman,
please come to some agreement regarding the following:
A picosecond is to one second as one second is to 31,710 years /info/en/?search=Picosecond One nanosecond is to one second as one second is to 31.71 years. /info/en/?search=Nanosecond

3.3356409519815 nanoseconds is "own work"? Linked source describes "the speed of light in vacuum c is 299 792 458 m/s" which looks more correct to me. 2001:7D0:4280:480:8D91:2B52:5F28:7F6C ( talk) 04:46, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
We are told, "1.1 nanoseconds – a commonly-used rough definition of a "light-foot"." but the preceding entry defines a light foot as 1.016703362164 nanoseconds, which rounds to 1 nanosecond, not 1.1, Gamov notwithstanding. I suggest we remove this line. . Jim . . (Jameslwoodward) ( talk to me) 14:34, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
