Problem saving datetime to file and reading it back for a calculation

[Steve]

Thanks for the responses.  Somehow, all of my python messages were shifted
into the deleted folder so I missed all of them until I caught the one from
MRAB.

I will sift through them and probably update my technique to use seconds as
suggested.

Still, I enjoyed the kluge I created making it work based on discovery...

25.8 is the square root of all evil.
