What's the deal with the clock?
Is the Downs' clock meant to be 15 minutes slow? I only ask this because when I spot something like this I automatically assume something's wrong with my computer.
Cheers

I too have noticed that the BD clock is slow. This post was made at 2:59pm Central US Time, but the post time shows 2:42.

Don't worry about it. Even feeling fifteen minutes younger is a big bonus at my age...
BTW - It's an hour out for me.

EDIT: I've just realised I'm an hour out as well but then again I always seem to be in the wrong time zone especially in the morning.

It's funny because since I started this thread the clock has got worse and worse

For some time I've noticed the clock is inaccurate. Yet, seeing how bad it's gotten for me, I couldn't help but double check and make sure my time zone was set right...which it is.
The current time: 2:25am. The BD clock: 12:42am. I've never seen anything so inaccurate.
