True, but the timing is pretty tricky.  I find that holding the right mouse
button down (provided you have it enabled) stops the clock.  This can be
a lot more reliable.  Also has anyone noticed that occasionally the
connection path will go right through pieces on the same level.  And other
times it will refuse to remove pieces that have an obviously valid path.
Great game, but these bugs got to be fixed.  Oh yeah, It also needs another
90 levels. 8->
