That is very nice. A large version of that would be a good bookstore window display for a busy street. It's too bad the Author Clock doesn't have a video output for a larger display.

The "a little after six" clock idea was from a old New Yorker cartoon. Searches for the cartoon have not been successful, because the original had no caption, and the Cartoon Bank search engine is a textual search. If anyone can find it, please let me know.
