I am trying out clock in org-mode. Is it possible to add en subtract times?
For example I am working on project A from 09:00 until 13:00. But during
this period I also worked for fifteen minutes on project B. I would like to
subtract those fifteen minutes from project A and add them to project B.
Can this be done?

As far as I know, you can do exactly this (the subtracting clock time
from one tree and adding it to another) but it's triggered on idle time,
so if you're working on something else in emacs it won't ask you to
resolve your idle clock time.

I assume you stopped the clock on A, then started it on B, then
stopped it on B, then restarted it on A.
In this case, go to the end of the B clock timestamp, put the point
on the HH:MM string, and hit S-M-<down> three times, so that the clock
sum for B is zero, and the clock sum for A is added 15 minutes.
Hope that helps,

Not exactly, but that is what I could do. I am going to try it out. Thank
you very much.

It works, but it gives pollution. It take the last minutes from B and put
them to A. (And it was somewhere in the middle I spend the time.) Also when
I have worked on two other projects while working on the project, it does
not work of-course.
Adding can be done by something like:
CLOCK: [2013-11-05 Tue 00:00]--[2013-11-05 Tue 00:15] => 0:15
CLOCK: [2013-11-05 Tue 00:00]--[2013-11-05 Tue 00:15] => 0:15
This works, two times 15 minutes is added, but sadly this does not work:
CLOCK: [2013-11-05 Tue 00:15]--[2013-11-05 Tue 00:00] => -0:15
