[LUAU] Favorite NTP server?

[Jeff Mings]

That was fast!  You are SO on it, Mr. Chee!  :D

     Since you work with the UH IT dept., I'm not surprised you produced 
a UH server.  Is this particular server _reliably_ deployed?  I.e., will 
it likely be consistently available 5 years from now?  There are a lot 
of devices, like phones, that I need to set a good NTP server on that I 
might not check for several years.

Thanks Brian,
-Jeff
