Not an answer to your question, but if this is a problem for you and you
have a broadband or frequent dial-up connection, you can synchronise your
clock with a time server on the internet using a protocol called ntp.


That improves the accuracy of the reported time but not of the clocks
themselves.


Sure, but a least you know what time it is.
