possible mistake

I am a sienfeld lover like most here. I never miss a show at night(well

occasionally I do). Any way there has been something bothering me. Every time I see the episode were Kramer sleeps with the pattern that Leonardo da vinci slept.("jerry did u know that da vinci means from vinci") Kramer says something along the lines of 20 minutes of sleep every 3 hours. Later Jerry says that Kramer won't be able to stay up because he has slept 1 and 1/2 hours in the past 3 days. that makes no sense!!! Has any body else caught this or do I just not hear correctly??? Please respond all those

I've also noticed this, but I think the explanation could be as simple as Jerry was just exaggerating as we all do at some point in life. Obviously he wasn't going to sit there and actually calculate the numberof hours of sleep Kramer had in the past three days, so he just came up with a small number off the top of his head. One explanation I suppose.

I know that when I saw that episode it didn't sound right, but I never gave it much thought. When I calculate it now, even if Kramer started the Da Vinci sleep at 11:59pm of the first day he would have had at *least* three hours of sleep on the third day. Also, he and Jerry would had to have had the conversation between midnight and 2:59 in the morning on the third day! Oops...maybe Jerry flunked math in school? Below is a chart of the three hour minimum, which of course wasn't the time frame on the show but illustrates the least amount of sleep Kramer could have had - assuming he stayed on schedule.

FIRST DAY 11:59 pm 20 min. sleep

SECOND DAY 2:59 am 20 min. sleep 5:59 am 20

8:59 am      	20
11:59 am            20
2:59 pm   	20

5:59 pm              20
8:59 pm              20
11:59 pm            20

THIRD DAY 12:00 am - conversation with Jerry
