An alarm would be nice too. Ben.
PS: On the web some where, they have all transistor Nixie clock.
Oh, top of the page here:

NIXIE clock built from neon ring counters, although there are numerous transistors
involved for driving the nixies.
I don't expect it's really practical in terms of reliability though.
