default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        BOOT_TIME = llGetTimestamp(); // script restarts when SIM restarts
    }
    
    touch_start(integer num)
    {
        llSay(PUBLIC_CHANNEL, "The last system restart was @ " + BOOT_TIME);
        llSay(PUBLIC_CHANNEL, "Right now it is " + llGetTimestamp());
    }
}
