There is a old saying that those with only one clock always know what
time it is, but those with more than one clock never can be sure.  ;-)

In the testing and validation phases, one should supply a known good
external clock against which to check everything.  I could imagine doing
something similar in production using any of a number of Internet time
services, but that project is beyond what I can commit to any time soon.
Note that it is not so simple because it must deal with arbitrary delays
across the Internet, the possibility of broken Internet time services,
and so on.

But in the common case, I bet it would greatly simplify your debugging
efforts!

I am glad that it helped!
