I'll add my .02 currency units: if you can, make one of your ntp peers
XX.pool.ntp.org, where XX is your country code.  Obviously, not all 
values of XX work -- among the surprising failures are il.pool.ntp.org,
jp.pool.ntp.org, and kr.pool.ntp.org -- but it's worth looking for your
country or a neighboring one.  This will give you a selection among 
many different choices, if you aren't concerned with picking a specific 
one (say, for security reasons).
