Some modern sayings just donât translate into the past. One of my favorite is, âIf Edison hadnât invented the light bulb,weâd be watching television in the dark!â
âTheyâ say that about clocks, and since âtheyâ were probably talking about analog clocks when they said it, âtheyâ were right. Doesnât quite apply to sundials, and it doesnât work too well with digital watches either, since a broken one most likely will have no display at all.
My grandfatherâs clock was the best ever made by the Timex comp-any. Just like the clock John Cameron Swayze displayed, last night on the old TV. Oh, it worked under water so perfectly. And it still makes a ticking sound. Which my grandfather tried only this afternoon. And, thatâs how the old man drowned. Allan Sherman.

They make battery-less watches that never need winding, why not iPhones without batteries and four bars in horror movies?

Actually, once the sun has set, the shadow is always falling on the correct time. (At least til dawn.)

Any relative motion can be converted into electrical energy.Things which do not involve relative motion donât have kinetic energy to convert.
