Hi, fellow dialists. Want to see a real live dial? I've been sent a note about the new dial on a wall of Pembroke College, Cambridge University. Its private life is being intruded upon by a camera over the way belonging to Olivetti Research Lab. You can see the dial in action, quite unclothed, together with a helpful message telling you the time in digits or adding default phrases such as The Shadow Cannot Be Detected At Present. Of course, it's advertising Olivetti, that's why it's free. Try http://www.orl.co.uk/sundial.
I'm applying to Olivetti for my commision for this message at once. Frank Evans
