Clock is as much as what one believes. It is cyclical in nature, so events over time will overlap and eventually sometimes match up. I'm not knocking The Clock, but I consider it a good research tool for Anons to focus on. I've done plenty of Clocks in the past, and there is a certain "ZEN" like mode (in the ZONE) one gets into when they get involved with researching.
Keep in mind, Q has never confirmed the use of or even an image of a Clock research graphic.
