This was always the joke with stated accuracies of clocks -- if you're going to have to reset it every ~6 months, just how far out of sync *can* it get? Here, we don't have that folly so we don't have to keep tweeking clocks. OTOH, we're always asking ourselves if <somebody>, <somewhere> is an hour ahead of us, or two... (etc). So, its almost WORST than having to be consciously aware of the time changes!
