Actually, I misdiagnosed the problem. What is actually happening is that
anytime the computer goes to sleep, when it wakes, the time set to an
ungodly point in the future--30 odd years and some different time. I wasn't
looking at the date, or noticing that it only seems to occur after sleep.
Setting monitor sleep only in energy saver seems to correct this.
