    So you'll know to the nanosecond when the moderation ends.
    Must be a real comfort.
    Not really, it'll more be because a post goes straight into a thread.

    I'm assuming it happens automatically.

    I admit it....I'm a clock snob.

    Does it take into account gravitational effects on time?
    It's hot in Topeka.

    Oh yes.

    In fact it's so accurate a drunken manker, with aids, couldn't make it miss a beat.

    Did you watch it when they added a leap second a few months ago?

    I set the alarm on my watch for it, but I missed it, by a second.

    Does that mean you have to plug into speakers for it to work?

    I have 6 alarms set for the mornings, 7 if you include a hyperactive dawg.
    They still get lobbed across the room and ignored.
    It's just a little bigger than a average size clock radio with a cradle on top to plug in the ipod. Than a short cord plugs into the headphone jack done to the back of the clock radio.

    The numbers are big enough and it is loud enough that I can place it on the other end of the bedroom so I have to get up to turn it off. hehe

    Bloody 'ell, that's what I call cashing in.
    Argos do a good radio alarm clock for around £5.

    ..n it wouldn't wake me up with Village People/Toni Basil/abba. :shame:
