Boot Camp time offset

I've got my MacBook Pro set to dual-boot between OS X and Windows. After rebooting from Windows to OS X, I noticed that the clock was off by several hours. I reset the time and then noticed when I rebooted into Windows, the clock was offset again. It turns out to be a problem with how OS X and Windows store time for the hardware clock. OS X stores GMT, Windows stores local time. There are several ways to fix it.
