When she gets *older* and has a harder time resolving those red SQUARE
digits (e.g., in bed, without her reading glasses), she may come to learn
the value of reading the "angle" of the *hands* on an analog clock!

for SWMBO so she could tell what time it was without having to
turn on the light and put on eyeglasses!]
