Well, on a 285' for 150 minute actual bottom time (not usdct bottom time) I
got delayed and spent 30 minutes longer than scheduled on my stops from 240
to 190.  (We were writing notes and joking around).  I made up for it by
shaving 2 hours or so from my scheduled stops between 100 and the surface.

Came out clean as a whistle.
