You didn't understand the experment. See my other reply.

That maybe. Would you elaborate more on a small part of your test
set-up?
Since you say that the lasers could be replaced by rods, how about
just skipping the lasers for now and just using the ends of the
original rod and only two clocks. Please describe how you go about
setting up one clock and get it to react to one end of the rod and
then how you place the other clock a rods distance away from the
first
and getting it to react to the other end of the rod. I'm still
feeling
skeptical so maybe this might help with understanding the situation
better.

The experimental setup is quite simple.

Take two identical rods. Lay them side by side and mark adjacent
points
at
each
end.

On the upper rod, fasten two clocks exactly at the end points. Both
clocks
have
photodetectors with fine slits or pinholes.

You forgot that the laser will diffract when it pass through the fine
slits.

Ken, the rods can be LY's in length and the slits nanometers from the
lasers.
Besides , both beams will behave identically. The path length is
virtually
zero
anyway. The lasers are used purely for locations.

OK lets take 3 stationary clocks and they are not running and all are set
at
zero. When the moving rod moves into position between the first two
clocks
they are now running and they now absolutely synchroneous. Now the move
rod
moves into position between the second and the third clock Now how do you
set the third clock so that it is synchroneous with the second
clock?....remember that the second clock is already running.
