Erm, the Finder says I took this screenshot on May 19, heh. Is this anything noteworthy? First and only time I've seen that message or anything like it. I'm not lee, by the way.

It's just an indication by the network system that the system timer just made a bigger jump than usual. The limits are 1000 seconds for jumps into the future and 0.01 seconds for jumps into the past. Small jumps into the past can happen when a computer syncs its time over the network. Unless they happen frequently, they're not very noteworthy and nothing terribly bad comes from them.

Yeah, I thought I recalled it from a URL or something. Just checking.
