Yes, you are answering in the wrong thread. Having an activity for  
exploring time is obviously valuable. What I was suggesting though is  
that there should *not* be a clock in the Sugar frame visible all the  
time.

Granted, all office-centric operating systems / GUIs have one. So  
what? We shouldn't. If a kid wants one, make Sugar easy to modify to  
allow this and other modifications we might not even think of, yet.
