Wall Clock
How do you make a wall clock less noisy?

I bought a nice wall clock the other day. Have not slept since. Anybody know how to reduce the noise the second hand makes?

You probably won't like this answer but....

I had the same problem. It drove me nuts but you actually get used to it; it will become white noise, background noise. When you move into a new house that is an entirely different part of town, the "foreign" noises tend to keep you awake but after a while, you get used to it.
