I have to disagree. If I have my alarm at 7am (localtime ;) so I can be at
work at 8am I don't care exactly how many seconds have passed, that alarm

It is the right thing to do... but one also adds/subtracts 3600

interference, unless it is an atomic clock or cell-phone, which do
those updates automatically.<br>
