Just to remind--and ask

[Robin Landseadel]

A-a-a-a-and the central Mcguffin in "Head 'em Off At The  
Past!!!" [organ stab!] is Time Travel.

Back to the drawing board . . .

	"The clock up on the wall, which reminded Doc of elementary
	school back in the San Joaquin, read some hour that it could
	not possibly be. Doc waited for the hands to move, but they
	didn't, from which he deduced that the clock was broken and
	maybe had been for years. Which was groovy however
	because long ago Sortilege had taught him the esoteric skill of
	telling time from a broken clock. The first thing you had to do
	was light a joint, which in the Hall of Justice might seem odd,
	but surely not way back here-who knew, maybe even outside the
	jurisdiction of local drug enforcement-though just to be on the
	safe side he also lit a De Nobili cigar and filled the room with a
	precautionary cloud of smoke from the classic Mafia favorite.
	After inhaling potsmoke for a while, he glanced up at the clock,
	and sure enough, it showed a different time now, though this
	could also be from Doc having forgotten where the hands were
	to begin with.
