Tim,

I think you should try it out.

You've read assoc.html#orphan, right?

If you "choose unwisely" and select a poor master to take over in your
falure case, you'll see a time jump when you regain internet access.

If correct time is really important, why not run an inexpensive S1 device
locally?

If it's *really* imporatant, you can build a very high quality S1 server
with Rb and GPS and/or modem for under US$2k.
