I should also note that when they tell time, they use those four
periods. Thus, instead of a twofold AM/PM division, they have a
fourfold division (altho I don't have names yet). Each quarter is
subdivided into 12 units of a little over 32 minutes (their day is a bit
longer than ours), each division in turn subdivided into 12 more
divisions, and those into 144 divisions of about 1.12 seconds.
