Hey, no, you forgot the 14 minutes.  6 hours + 14 minutes.  :-)

Lessee, if your membership lasts 100 years, and you've so far sent • $123.50
toward your membership, then that's 365.25 days/year * 100 years * 86400
seconds/day = 3155760000 seconds.  Downtime was approximately 6:14, • which is
22440 seconds.  So 22400/3155760000 = .000007098131670342, and • multiplied by

Sorry about it, but you can't have 17 Lira (Turkish, right?) since the

produced 10,000,000 banknotes very recently. I'm being paid with 44 of them
every month. Now, THAT is the BIG MONEY!..:-)
