      Description: useless floating binary LED clock for your desktop
      Long Description: I was given a ThinkGeek binary clock by a friend (in a not-so-transparent attempt to force me to learn binary math). It sucks. It runs fast, very fast, gaining about 5 minutes per day, making it totally useless. So this is my revenge on the world. Plus, I was drunk when I wrote it.
