"real time"

[Garson O'Toole]

This post is designed to resuscitate the thread started in May 2011 by
Jon Lighter about the mutable meaning of the expression "real time".

Here is another example. The blog about Japan at the Wall Street
Journal is called:

JapanRealtime
http://blogs.wsj.com/japanrealtime/

With occasional posts on this thread we can continue watch the
evolution of "real time" in real time.
