Uhhh, C is a constant.. the speed of light in a vacuum. 186,000 miles per
second or thereabouts. It's not zero.

Yeah, the thing about that is.. atomic clocks don't "slow down".

Radioactive decay happens at a fixed rate (which is measured in
terms of the isotope's half-life). Monitoring that decay gives you a very
very very very accurate clock. That was the whole point of the experiment.

I hope you were joking with your rebuttal..
