That's what is so spooky. The 3D objects show up in their proper places, but are stuck in time. For example, who set that clock at midnight? Not me. The only time I set the clock is when I read the system time, do the calculations to turn it into arcs of motion and set the hands at that location in 3D space. I always assume that I will be able to read the system time. I have no code in place which says, "If you can't read the system time, set the clock to midnight." If anything, it should show some random time indicating whatever numbers happened to be in the bytes it tried to get the info from.

Is the bubble column animating on that monitor?
Do F1-F2 and F3-F4 change the background colors?
