[Rhodes22-list] 10:10

[David Bradley]

Interesting that all clocks are set at 10:10 - didn't know that, but
apparently someone in Pink Floyd did.

My trivia was tied to the 70s references of the past couple of days...

During the Dark Side of the Moon tour in (I think) 1973, when the
alarm went of in the song "Time," it was 10:10 exactly, and the screen
behind the stage had very trippy clocks all set at 10:10.  I won't
talk about the stuff for sale in the audience that also had the face
of a clock set at 10:10 - some early concert merchandising
entrepreneurialism.
