From: markus.magnuson@gmail.com (Markus Amalthea Magnuson) --089e013d0f120ee9d2050df06ae8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Hey Yasuo, Yes, there can surely be no other reason for the existence of the value, than that someone wrote it :) I think what I'm interested in is the reasoning behind it, since it seems so arbitrary. It's not 20 or 30 minuts, for example. I have tried emailing the author a long time ago but never received a reply.
