 I should have pointed out that I always go into exposed mode (use the
Internet) with a live DVD. My laptop was always 6 hours ahead and now
that they changed to summer time, it is 5 hours ahead.
 I used logs which names a time a la:

_DT=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)
_BN=$(basename "${_SDIR}")
_LOG_FL="${_BN}_${_DT}.log"
...
 If anything, timing is one of the aspects of reality which should be
coordinated.
