How do you explain to some one on a service rig the closer you get to the ground the greater the KB difference you have to add to your string.?

Thanks

KB = hieght of the drilling rig's kelly bushings when the well was originally drilled...

The closer to ground level, the farther below the drilling rig's original measurement.
