It appears the visitor center computer has been adding a few seconds to its
"clock" with each download.  Note the discrepancy in last night's
Grand--observed vs electronic.  Looking back to July 2nd, we had Daisy
called at 0714 and electronic reading of 0724.  Even allowing for the
greater distance to the device in the case of Daisy vs Grand, 10 minutes
seems a bit much.  Bottom line: it may be that there has been some creeping
inaccuracy in the electronic times reported recently--perhaps as much as 10
minutes at this point.  I believe they are looking into this.  FYI

Nothing from Fan and Mortar today.
