Who knew? I thought it was a joke when I first heard of it. Very cool, electronics are for suckers! Or rather, those who need time at night, or accurate to within a minute, depending on the season.

    That digital sundial in your first link is brilliant. Uses optical trickery to generate the digits. What uses no digital electronics and power required? I love it!

    Now, how to build a geek version that displays time in binary?
