In Response To: Beating the dead horse (Rich Munitz)

If an extra 6.5 minutes of time were added to the duration of Bill and Brent's 3+ hour match, what would the impact have been?

In this particular case, nothing... it was the finals, and neither of them had anything left to play. I'd be fine with expanded time controls for finals.
