31. A plot of β as a function of elapsed time is shown in Figure 7 of ref. 25. This figure also indicates the r(0) does not change with elapsed time.
32. z values by less than 0.1 decades, (b) Struik (ref. 1) was careful to limit the time scale of mechanical measurements to a small fraction of te. We have not done this, but it is important to note that, in contrast to the mechanical measurements, our optical measurements have no influence on the aging process.
