| Hi Alex_Coleman,
For myself, I write 18 hours 16 minutes after midnight as 6.16 P.
If it was something that happened 18 hours 16 minutes ago,
I write it as .761 days... ( 18 + 16 / 60 ) / 24 .

But, as you are insane, you don't count. I am sure _you_ find it easier to
write .761 days than 18 hours, 16 mins but I doubt even you would find it
easier to think and communicate to others in that manner. ("I will meet you
in .761 days" is just insane)
