It's the pretentiously-named "Most Accurate Clock". We've got one. The only thing you need to watch is that if your reception for the WWV time signal isn't good, you're in trouble -- the clock has neither battery backup nor a manual-set procedure, so it *must* pick up WWV well if you want it to function properly immediately after a power outage. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
