i have run 'man hwclock' so many times that the a, c, h, k, l, m, n, o
keys have gray lettering and the rest are black. so i now have one
terminal with 'man hwclock' left open. :-D

in fact, i have run combination's so many times and of various ways,
only difference i can think of is changing the sequence, which still
does no good.
or, i have run it so many different ways that my brain is failing to
think of right combination.
running "system-config-date", the only way i can get bios clock to
show UTC is by setting both system and zone to UTC, which makes
system UTC.
/etc/adjtime is still;
6.736246 1423375017 0.000000
