    If you so wish to work from a 28 hour day then i think you should take time by the neck and stretch it to your will. Please feel free to let me know how many hours you choose if 28 isnt enough, and how long each week will be, and the days in a week, and ofc how many minutes you will have in your hour, and then dont forget how many days you will have in a month and year, and how many years you will have in a decade, etc. Oh and if you could have all this in miliseconds would be much appreachiated.

    Well according to this it was done in a democratic way, a group of people came up with it, and the people accepted it as the norm.

    yes all very well ..but i am thinking of the implications like life insurance..if we got this matter sorted out ..and had a consencus of nobility people to come out with a new hourly day rate we could in fact be paid out for many things like pensions earlier or later ..all types of policys would have to be paid..this in my eyes is and was a conspiracy by others to diddle us out of extra lifetime ..we could grow older longer ..see the benefits..

    28 hours sounds kinda tiring!
    Birthdays are good for you - statistics show that those who have the most live the longest.
