Junkman,
You might have been right on for "real" vs official time. What longitude are you ? Everyone's "real" time is differtent unless they are on exactly the same longtitude /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Now I will just have to check that on a map to see if they moved the time zone in your area for the convenience of a large city or some such to get the official time.

Instead of one of those "automatic" time adjusters (which I used on a previous computer), I just use this site for the "official" time.

Well, Bird, it's to be expected - which part of the guvmint to believe? I put your pointer up on the screen, and compared it to my usual source - tock.usno.navy.mil, and they were 2 seconds behind. But then, your referenced site does weasel out of it with their disclamer about being a few seconds off!

I've never seen it indicate a "few seconds"; right now it says "accurate to within 0.1 seconds" and sometimes it's .2 of a second instead of .1. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Bird, you're retired aren't you? You aren't supposed to have to worry about any unit of time smaller than a week! /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Who cares if you are 3/100ths of a second late for a dinner or whatever? /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Bird, now I understand why your photo cuts off just above the stomach... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Like they say. Call me anything you want to but don't call me late for dinner.
