50 Minutes

There must be a reason why the clock atop the 300 Medical Plaza building was fifty minutes slow and read 8:10 as of 9:00 AM this past Friday. (But then, as we have pointed out before, there must be a reason why the Roman numeral 4 on that clock is written as IIII.) The obvious hypothesis to explain the fifty minute lag is that someone forgot to change the clock to daylight saving time. However, that time change occurred awhile ago and, in any case, the discrepancy is 50 minutes, not 60.

Surely, Wendy and Leonard Goldberg, after whom the building was recently named, would be disappointed.

Time for a new clock?
