Thanks for setting up the web data. I appreciate the chance
to have a "sanity check" of my data against others.

The billboard data "ntpq -p" has the 'delay' for remote
peers and this can be used to generate the 'wedge' plots.

It would be fun to setup a pool.ntp.org whacker with a
grand script that watches the DNS SOA and does a zone
transfer, using the IP addresses to dynamically add 
to ntpd and the plotting routines to plot the delay to
all these remote hosts. Run ntpd in "noselect" mode of course.

Lets see, arrange the plots in hop count order... Mumble...
