and since we are all tweaking this by observing the machine on the field, and nudging the numbers a little, it doenst really matter if your seconds are lockstep with the National Beuro of Standards in Bolder Colorado

or better yet, forget seconds and work in loop counts - one less thing to worry about.

the thing about multiplying by 38 is if you need partial seconds - floating point math is slow. working in raw loop cycles in fine, i just wanted to give less experienced teams other options. replacing int with long shouldn't be that hard.
