Darn, if I had known how close you were, I would have figured out how to mis-write the minute or something. And for you, it would not even take the normal $20 bucks we ask others.
And for those who think I am serious about adjusting in times for money, we run two logs plus the time I write on the card. So you would have to pay off the timer at the line and the automatic printing timer plus me. While two of us are human, the third is not and therefore is hard to payoff. It is also hard to cheat on the automatic printout although I am sure someone could figure out how.
