Car will not start.

All the lights work fine, as does the alarm, the windows, etc. Battery is weeks old (Optima). Interstingly the positive cable (I had issues with this cable in the past) is hot to touch, the black terminal is not. The clock keeps resetting itself (SET CLOCK keeps appearing with a blinking 12:00).
There is no cranking of any kind. But I can hear a single "CLANK".
If I attempt to start it (hold the key to the start position), there is no cranking but the lights in the dash are VERY dim. If I leave it cranking for an extended period of time, it seems to drain the battery. After a while, with the key at the "ON" position all lights go back to normal.
