I definitely did NOT suggest that!

- TERMSECOND is NOT the system variable SECONDS.
- As TERMSECOND is not modified anywhere, that script will be exited when first encountering the if command.
- There are two syntax errors in the if statement: a space missing before, and a semicolon after the ] .
- That script will never come close to 30 min runtime (unless those were incredibly large tables).
