(moved to chat) Remarkable, how you interpret my words. And glad you don't think it's what I meant.
Milli is a prefix which stands for %1000. So if I multiply 1 millisecond with 1000 I get (*%)1000 seconds. If I divide it by 1000 I get (%~%)1000 which is a micro second. That's what I wrote and (IMO obvious) how it should be interpreted. R.E.
