"From the late eighties
through the nineties I listened to approximately 200,000 hours of this type of programming."
200,000 hours, huh? Hmmm..let me see here:
200,000 hrs / 24 hrs/day = 8,333.33 days
8,333.33 days / 365 days/year = 22.83 years
Hard to believe a person could listen to 22.83 YEARS worth of "this type of programming" in the time span given, from "late eighties through the nineties", figuring that if the "late eighties" meant around 1986 or 1987, and "through the nineties" meant all the way through to 1999. My calculations shows that to total about 13 or 14 years at most for that time period. Even IF a person listened 24 hours/day, I still don't see how they could fit in 22.83 years worth of listening, into a 13 or 14 year time span. I'd say credibility = fail.
But, I'm sure you could always come back with "I did say "approximately". No offense. Just doin' the math here.
Keep smilin'
