Does Comcast provide NTP servers? (2nd try)

I just looked up my comcast gateway, set my CentOS ntp server to it, and the
time did not change (I had another extremely reliable ntp server).   Thus,
Comcast's NTP server appears reliable, from that initial test.

What other information can I offer?

Hope that helps.
