-'''Topic:''' What Time Is It?
-Timekeeping is often taken for granted on computers, but where does that time come from?  This will be an overview of how international time is established and distributed around the world.  Although NTP will be discussed, this presentation will be more of a high-level view and not a how-to walkthrough.
