    I’m confident I was in the store for less than 40 minutes, and yeah, when I say “a minute or two” that’s obviously a every rough estimate.

            Well, that certainly could be. But I certainly would not draw a strong correlation between the two. I do plenty of difficult tasks that take just a few minutes, but i spend several hours at night sleeping.
