It all depends where you live. I know people that get an outage a week,
so setting clocks is a way of life.
PGE, bless their corporate hearts, is run both like a Swiss clock and
third world nation power. If you have a fair amount of industry or malls
nearby (i.e. customers), your power is great. Live at the edge of town,
and things are not so good, even in Silicon Valley. Monte Sereno, Monta
Vista (now Cupertino), etc.

I predict, with all of my oracle abilities, snort, that the test won't run
no time until there's a law suit. Almost everyone uses battery powered
clocks nowdays, on the wall, and most alarms are digital with xtal
timebases. However, there are still those old foggies who still have
motorized clocks depending on 60Hz to do their duty. If this makes them
obsolete, I wonder if the government is prepared to buy folks replacement
clocks, like they provided the digital receivers for our TV's? Like I said,
I can see a courtroom battle as I write this.
Best,
