    It is true, but so ridiculously small that it is totally meaningless... 1.33 milliseconds per 100 years.

    "The change is tiny, measured in milliseconds, which is one-thousandth of a second."

    Not to mention the numerous other influences which have been forever affecting the rotation time of the planet. Things we have no control over like the earths core, the pull of the moon, isostatic rebound etc.

    I wonder how much longer the days were when sea-levels were 200 mtrs higher than they are today. Must have been all of a full second per day.
