I AM MYSTIFIED by this green dial. Can anyone, perhaps its original documentor, explain it to me?
MEANWHILE, IF YOU ARE ANYWHERE NEAR CHICAGO, allow me to remind that COULTON and I will make a rare DAYLIGHT appearance today at 2PM at
BORDERS #101
which is located at 2817 North Clark Street, in LINCOLN PARK
which they say is part of CHICAGO.
That is all.

It's a simple timer. I have one on my pool pump. However, this one appears to be connected to a vast network of streetlamps which at the appointed time, in this case, 10pm, will begin flashing the signal that the takeover is about to begin.
It is indeed a timer. I thought perhaps it was a part of a large explosive device (see comments on the original upload in the Flikr pool), but the street lamp thing makes sense.
That's not ANY timer, friends.
That's a circa 1970's Rainbird Sprinkler Timer.
That bad boy to a straight 45 volts DC to run. Couple that with poor wiring, a summer afternoon, and a fat kid excited about backyard waterplay, and you've got the makings of a lifetime electricty/sprinkler phobia.
No, I don't wish to discuss it.
