Per your request, meatloaf; I’m being lazy on the HTML, else you could see the picture without clicking on it.
Here’s a good video that shows what was involved in “inventing” this clock, in about 20s:
As someone who built Radio Shack and Heathkit electronics kits back in the day, operations that involved soldering irons and such, the idea that this kid was an “inventor” is and was complete horse apples. Nor was I an inventor, I was just a kid assembling electronics kits. Clockmed didn’t do half of what I did, as the video illustrates.
Here’s a good graphic that, with a little thought and reflection, should make things clear to even the most dense:

It is arguable that this whole episode was carried out to make people hesitant to say something, if they see something. Who knows, perhaps Clockmed helped make the San Bernardino shootings possible?
