Forum rules
1. Keep it clean. 2. Keep the discussion civil. 3. Name calling is not allowed. Politics and religion are two topics that tend to degenerate into a violation of one of the three simple rules above. The mods and the site admin reserve the right to "lock" or "delete" any discussion that in our opinion, is "heading in the wrong direction." MOST of all, be respectful of your fellow Cubber's opinions. Don't expect to change someones belief system from a simple forum on the internet.

Nothing happens when I go to it.

When I retired a friend of mine gave me an old PAM electric wall clock with the "yellow pages" logo on the dial. Its been running just fine for several years but yesterdayI noticed it was running backwards.
Q. Is this a good thing Mike Ron, can't load your link either
This clock is 8-seconds slow comparing it to my atomic clocks time. Could not rely on this to snipe bids. Then came Bronson
Seems like they did that a lot when I was in high school. It was not good. A lot of the electric clocks had motors that would run either way and it was random which way they ran when plugged in. They put in a little latch mechanism that would stop it if it ran backwards at start up. If it ran against the stop, it would then pick up running the other way. Some times when they get old (probably gummed up) they will occasionally reverse themselves at random then bump the latch and start going frontwards again. Not obvious anything is wrong, but they start loosing time. If you do enough monkeying with the latch, you can make them run backwards.
