ntp is at 02 after each hour and farts.sh is at 0:10 as stated above.
I have worked with ntp and cron for years and am very carefull to
avoid time resets that will cause an app to run a second time becaues
the system clock is runing fast/slow.  So I don't think ntp has
anything to do with this.  I am going to disable it tonight and see if
I get the same results.  Also going to run a few non-posting runs of
farts.sh to see if I can duplicate the error.
