You could be right, she does have a thing for clocks and watches. We
are told that Harry's watch stopped too, but it was a pretty ordinary
one as I recall. I do not know beyond a doubt that there will be no more
time travel, I hope against hope that there will not be any more.

I don't have any galleons but I do have some Interworld Credits I won
off a Kzin in a poker game. I think I left them in my spaceship which,
come to think of it, we are going to need if we are to do any more
time traveling. The Earth moves you see, quite a bit in fact, even
during three hours. If we are going back 16 years we've got quite
a trip ahead of us. Of course not one in a hundred time travel authors
seems aware of this simple fact. It is a mistake H.G. Wells made and 
most since him have followed in his footsteps.

I really, really hope we are done time traveling.
