Hi Russell,

 Touche' (:-)! I am going to claim a typo, on this one.
 I will be more careful with my time from here on,
 though come to think of it, 3.4 hours maybe
 a good estimate on the time I manage to
 dedicate to pure platonic contemplation
 in a week, sadly...

 Thanks for the humorous nit-picking.

 24/7 = 3.4285714... Why is this full time? Its a little bigger than Pi
 (so a little bigger than a half a turn), maybe a bit more in the state
 of Indiana (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi).

 I'm jesting with you of course - you must mean 24 (hours) x 7 (days)
 (per week), but I ask you, why do you confuse division and
 multiplication?

 Cheers
