        llSay(0, "I feel so refreshed!");
    }
}
default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llOwnerSay("Time between sleeps:");

        integer loops = 10;
        float last_time = 0.0;

        llResetTime();
        llSleep(0.02);

        while (--loops)

            float time = llGetTime();
            llOwnerSay((string)(time - last_time));
            last_time = time;
            llSleep(0.0); // Try a value above zero
