Restart the clocks of Britain!

Posted by Cory Doctorow, November 4, 2007 12:51 PM | permalink

The Stopped Clocks campaign aims to get Britain's public clocks running and on time again. Many handsome old public clocks are visible from the streets of London, but it often seems that these grand old timepieces are dead and rusted, ground to a halt years in the past. This site sports a map of stopped clocks, along with vigorous discussion of the best way to get the time running again. Link
