crazy electrical question

[<bottorff25@verizon.net>]

Most digital clocks use the frequency of the a/c current in the line as their 
"time". If this one outlet somehow is generating a slightly higher frequency 
then the clock would run fast. I would identify which circuit this outlet is on 
and see if every outlet on that circuit acts the same. Some electronic device 
plugged into that same circuit is most likely causing it.
