Clarification: I didn't mean to imply that a Rat would be sufficient for Duration, but rather that it would probably suffice for dimensioned values to have a RatBag of units, each with a RatBag of dimensions, rather than NumBags. SBags might be too restrictive. (sent both publicly and privately on the first try, this time) > > -- > Jonathan "Dataweaver" Lang >
