I'm trying to figure out how to simply and with a single calculation figure
out the time, half an hour from "now", in MPE. I do not need to worry about
crossing midnight, although I do have to test for a "stop time". The best
idea I have had so far is to add hours x 60 to minutes, add 30, and divide
by 60 to get hours and mod 60 to get back minutes, although I'm less sure
about doing that as a single command line.
