The Self-Adjusting Clock

 

The Puzzler

 

RAY: At my house on the Cape I have a tide clock--and the tide doesn't care whether it's Daylight Savings Time or not. This is an analog clock that has only one hand, the hour hand. It runs slower than a normal clock because the tides don't come at six-hour intervals. High tides are anywhere from 12 hours and two minutes apart to 12 hours and 50 minutes apart. Do we have a winner?

TOM: The winner this week is Jane Douglas from Carbondale, Colorado. Congratulations!
