[clue-tech] /proc times.

I ran across a post that suggested that the timestamp on /proc would 
tell you the last boot time of the machine.  Makes sense to me, and 
ditto for /proc/1.

But I look at /proc and /proc/1 and they say 10:53.  /proc/2 (and many 
others after that) say 17:54  which is what uptime says.  Anyone know 
why the difference?

Perhaps our TZ (-7) has something to do with it, though 10:53 isn't UTC 
so it's 7 hours the wrong way.
