This most likely wouldn't work, but here goes...

The T.O.D. (Time Of Day) clocks in the 8520s on the Amiga aren't used, right?
Would it be possible to hook up a battery and a little switching circuitry to
one of the 8520s and use it's TOD clock as a battery backed clock?  Or would
a RESET signal clear it?  Would it be at all practical?
