However, it is possible that it has a very odd motor-driven system that holds the bell up at the end of each swing, thus effectively reducing the rate of striking. That would also explain the strict regularity of the striking.<br><br>Carl <br><br><br>--- On <b>Tue, 10/2/12, Douglas Davis <i><dougdavis22@WflCt3QJJ39YnUydCMgg6gv6VX6L47geCPII4dhO04Ue3bAvAl-8-oAuGfaa6z-j65J2zV8V5S_fUgQ7n6cDIQ.yahoo.invalid></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"><br><div id="yiv2057359248"><div>On 2 October 2012 19:59, Alan Taylor <span dir="ltr"><<a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:alantaylor@rtmikGl5rITbHSiXbtuquD1Hq2Wgyi0OqXy6AIYfc2Og9EX6a9_W0oxo9tOQZxbIPdaKSprV74L9xgOMSBS-e2vEeA.yahoo.invalid" target="_blank" href="/mc/compose?to=alantaylor@hBtVRGLEaysDCQIZFnLukrxa9qMUqNS4Tvzb6QsIv-PHh3KsS7hHeSkG1tV_Mh0y6A6MXbsyEkarzj0H_sSu.yahoo.invalid">alantaylor@rtmikGl5rITbHSiXbtuquD1Hq2Wgyi0OqXy6AIYfc2Og9EX6a9_W0oxo9tOQZxbIPdaKSprV74L9xgOMSBS-e2vEeA.yahoo.invalid</a>></span> wrote:<br><div
