      And why would the tv always want to remind us it is breaking stuff.. especially news. Break them to pieces and usually find only unrecognizable bits and pieces that make no sense and yet are discussed and discussed and discussed over and over and over and over. It is indeed discussed intelligently and respectfully and responsibly and to the point as well as generally in a... the breaking news thing is brilliant. Break more news its so helpful and reassuring.

    for anybody who wanted to know: 1200 hours = (1)50 days.
    if they have around 12 people working on a video with 5 work days where they would work for 8 hours, that could result to 150 working days (3600 hours minus 14 hours if they worked for 8 hours each day, 1,200 hours of work.)
