Dear Bob,

And if you could just clarify for me exactly how long is a yonk? 

I am developing a product which includes accessing distributed RDBMS around
the world as well as scheduling and coordination of real and virtual
meetings worldwide. Consequently, I have to include a time translation layer
and want to include all measures of time and their equivalent durations in
ticks.    {: )
