I just don't have that shiver of sex appeal whenever someone mentioned climate as a key motivation. Perhaps it would bode well for inventors to use a different mindset to attract a wider audience. @Connie T., it seems like these clocks are centered around climate and technological progression.

Jerad, have you seen this: <a href="http://www.longnow.org/projects/clock/" rel="nofollow">"10,000 year old clock."</a> Its an older conception, but I was reminded of it by this project... Very cool. Jerad, have you seen this: “10,000 year old clock.” Its an older conception, but I was reminded of it by this project…

I was watching the video and I think it is indeed a good concept not only conveying you the passage of time but it must be a good piece to look at when dealing with stress.^^ I surely want to have one but I doubt if I can afford it.

It's such a well thought out project with so many intelligent heavy hitters behind it. Hopefully that little detail will be smoothed out if it ever becomes a reality. @Kate, they really dropped the ball when it came to marketability with that name.

I mean, it's really nonsensical and frankly, annoying (though I can't place my finger on why at the moment). They need a new PR rep. to fix that, their website, and overall promotion fast. Another example of a decent product ruined by poor packaging, in my opinion. Nice find though!
