re: down to its essence -- obviously for this demo it doesn't matter,  
but in practice, I would want to put in code to only change the  
minute and hour hands when they actually need it, rather than setting  
them to the same startAngle (except when they actually move) each  
second. I haven't timed this to see whether it's actually a concern.

And multiple heads are definitely better than one. That's why I plan  
to grow additional heads as soon as possible. ;-)
