I think after about 2-3 hours I'd be asking what is going on with the busin=
ess processes/design that end-users need stuff as it was all that time ago.=
 Can they remember what has happened since from a business perspective that=
 might affect how they see 5 day old data.=20
On the other hand it sounds like a great way to get experience in multi-ter=
abyte databases.=20
