[Olson, Arthur David]

The reference to "major time zones" below is US-centric.

        The US Naval Observatory has augmented their time-reporting
service with a
        neat new service which compares the time being kept on your
computer system
        with USNO time, and reports the deviation.

        How good are those software plug-in regulators that are supposed
to keep
        your system time on the nose?  Maybe you'll be surprised.  I
was!

        The whole process is quick and completely automatic, and you can
choose
        from the major time zones.
