DJ, yeah, right, I remember, but you've got to be on sizzurp (or high on edwin
abbott abbott) to think clockwise means 'counterclockwise because if you were
in the drawing it would be opposite.  'Clockwise' just doesn't work that way.

Of course this is absurd because there's no actual reason (is there?) for
clocks rotating in one direction and not the other.

Well, anayway, maybe the documentation can be clarified at a convenient point.
