#9If it were not for nukes, the people moving the clock would be drafted and clock materials used to build a cannon in world war 5.

You mean like those metallic pouches sold by Amazon? I got one to keep my car keys at night in, since it completely stops the keyless go system from working and protects them from a relay attack and car theft.
