Re: [DML] Found Great Product for Clearing Fogged Lenses

Tuxr,

As far as setting your clock goes, when the clock loses power it 
automatically returns to 12:00.  You might disconnect your battery, or just 
the fuse to the clock, at 11:59 (am or pm).  Then at 12:00 quickly reconnect 
it.  You might also want to try the two buttons on the clock again, mine are 
really touchy, but they do work if you use a paper clip or something 
similar.

Good luck,
