Local Time

So, I sat there and checked the time on my watch to the time on my computer at work. They both update on the same nuclear clock in Colorado The methods they use to check are miles apart. One checks through firewalls and thousands of miles of cables. The other checks through some spotty radio transmission from the source that is only receivable next to a window at night, if it is not raining.

I typed in the 'date' command and waited to hit enter as the minute rolled over on my watch. I figured if they were less than 30 seconds off I would be greatly pleased.  ... They were dead on. Not even a full second as far as I could tell separates the two time pieces.

Nice.
