Hi Wayne,

I'm retired, and after 40 years of 24*365 highly irregular shiftwork, 
about 35% of that on nightshifts - usually split morning+night, I have 
difficulty getting to sleep, so usually "work" on the OS/2-eCS systems 
for 20-30 hours then sleep for 4-6 hours, then repeat - still *365 [I 
live alone!]
