Hi Tom,

Your nixie clock got to 23:59:60 and then started counting backwards!
It still is, and it counts backwards through 60 in the seconds field,
skipping 01 - currently at 2015.06.30 23:49:60.  See the video clip I
sent you last time.  Maybe it's a southern hemisphere thing.

Regards,
Mark

Some ideas: http://leapsecond.com/notes/leap-watch.htm

For the previous leap second in June 2012 I happened to be on a family vacation on a remote beach in the southern hemisphere. I built a sundial out of driftwood and traced the shadow (counter-clockwise).
