There is an apparent conflict between the high output of absolute dates of automated devises installed in geochronological laboratories and the growing need of an individual and thorough interpretation of absolute physical dates determined for geoscientists and archaeologists. This conflict can only be solved by a symbiotic co-operation with universal geochronologists. The benefit will be an increase of the reliability and precision of the geochronological time marks, an improvement of the dating methods and an extension of the fields of application for the many absolute dating methods based on cosmogenic isotopes, radiation damage or uranium-series disequilibrium.
