Got a working clock! Need to work on when the minute and
hour hands should advance.The problem I was having was - while
running hand advances on independent timers - I was starting from
the Now function numbers. So starting the clock at 8:30 was putting
the hour clock squarely on 8: big mistake! I've resolved that one.
It would be neat if I could add sixty lines in a halo around the clock
to better time the minute and hour hands. Today's problem...
The above clock is doctored with the secinds code given a 1 second head start.
There is a lesson here: the discrepancy between my clock and computer time is different
as a function of the order in which I call the three timers. Long story short, a computer and a
precision watch are two different instruments...
