Or just use ClockRack and dial up to the US Navy's AC.

Atomic clocks are accurate at keeping time, not necessarily at stating the correct time.

Re the thread, I think I'll change my clock time just to confuse people.

The clock has been wrong for ages. I made a thread about it ages ago, although I seem to recall it was running too fast back then.

*thinks back*Markos said something about not having the time and I said he could theoretically have the job done before he started it.*thinks back*

SO it must have been running fast before.

The local time option seems to become the new highlight here. Well I can understand I'm also always looking at it and comparing it with my watch and with other members. It's interesting to see: "when here it's 0:30 what time is in America".

Cool. It would be better if it was a 12-hour am/pm clock, but then again I think the dates would be better as M-D-Y.

He never did respond to my suggestion that the date be displayed as 21-Aug-2002 rather than 21-08-2002. I think that would satisfy everyone.

This should be moved to sit next to the flag, and the word "time" removed.

Anyway, can we PLEASE have +1300 and -1300 time zones added. They are becoming more and more necessary.

Mark,

I selected the European flag with the result that I am now on GMT. This is wrong. I am at GMT+1. Does that mean that I have to select the Dutch flag after all?
