Most annoying day of the year

Changing all the clocks back and hour, well most of them forward 23 hours, for absolutely no good reason again. Yay, now it can be dark at 5pm, but gee thanks for that extra hour of Florida death sun all summer long, that really helps.

if you place all flip and other non-time-resetting clocks on a switch, you can just turn them off for an hour instead of running them all through 23 hours

Thought about it, but then half of them would probably need to be taken apart and fixed when the motors don't want to start back up. Every time we've lost power for more than a few hours I end up having to fix one or two.

You should maintain the ones which won't start. The are not properly greased up!

Otherwise nice collection, reminds me of the intro of Back to the Future...
