50 * the largest group of machines with essentially the same date.
51 * That assumed that machines with bad clocks would be uniformly

53 * of machines is not uniform among models of machines, and the
54 * distribution of errors in clocks tends to be quite consistent
55 * for a given model. In other words, all model VI Supre Servres
56 * from GoFast Inc. tend to have about the same error.
57 * The original BSD implementation would chose the clock of the
58 * most common model, and discard all others.
60 * Therefore, get best we can do is to try to average over all
61 * of the machines in the network, while discarding "obviously"
