Philip,

See my paper in the January 1989 ACM Computer Communications Review
for a discussion of NTP timekeeping accuracy. If that tart rag is
not at convenient paw distance, a PostScript copy is in the file
pub/ntp/ccr.ps on louie.udel.edu. From data collected here, a
systematic offset of a few milliseconds is not unlikely, given the
network connectivity under the Atlantic.
