The reason that it seems obscure is becuse it _is_ obscure.
For example, before discussing what ``resynch'' means,
I'd like to know what ``synch'' means.


That's not necessary.


Then why call it a synchronization rather than just a coordinate
transformation?


Synch is short synchronous which means "same time". The
choice of how you set your clocks determines whether two
events are considered to have happened at the same time.


So, if I set my clock back an hour, then I can be two places
at the same time?

Shubert was much better composing unfinished symphonies.
