14 September 2000 - scripted RATS

clue:

Candidate George Bush has been accused of subliminal advertising on the basis of an ad attacking his opponent in which “RATS” appears for one frame. Thanks to local literacy efforts, Bush is able to pronounce the word “subliminal” as “subliminable”.

A Rydberg atom (not to be confused with a Ratbert aroma) is one with an outer electron so far out that it’s barely attached, similar to some political candidates. TOF here stands for “time of flight”.

On second thought... don’t worry about the funny physics jargon.
