remove stray sentence fragment and re-arrange

'''Demented Doctor Wingle''', as he was usually known, was the creator of the original [[Glass Clock]] of [[Bad Schüschein]]. That is to say, when it existed, it was because he made it. Afterward, of course, he didn't because it never existed; Wingle was working on a method of extracting sunshine from oranges. This was the best [[Lu-Tze]] could do after he just failed to reach the clock in time when it existed (except that it didn't: it's easier to understand after twenty years' study at [[Oi Dong]].) Wingle employed [[Igor#Igor at Jeremy Clockson's, Ankh-Morpork|Igor's]] grandfather Igor, whose hands were still used by Igor while building [[Jeremy Clockson]]'s improved version.

Interestingly enough, [[Leonard of Quirm]], shortly before the time of {{MAA}}, was working on a way of extracting lightning from lemons, a concept thought so outrageously stupid that it contributed to his exclusion from the [[Alchemists' Guild]]). Despite the fact that at this time more than one mind on the disc was thinking along the same lines, and we on Roundworld know that electricity may be derived by hooking electrodes into citric fruit. Did Lu-Tze "borrow" Leonard's experiment so that Wingle could find it on the workbench, forget about glass clocks, and focus on the ''far'' more rewarding question of how many oranges needed to be connected in parallel so as to awaken a monster?
