Re: creating an afk timeline

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel@panix.com>]

orgmode would have a problem with it since duration times do not span
dates.  If afk from [2023-12-20 wed 22:58] as start time and [2023-12-21
Thu 04:00] as end time duration last time I checked would not return
05:02.
If that were fixed, orgmode could be used to log health events.
