Even if there are Span.seconds, Span.mseconds...etc., it is not strange. 
In addition, it give the symmetry with seconds, mseconds ...etc.
I'm getting the feeling that the one that there are not the methods is 
strange than there are.
I'll try it.

I have sense of incongruity for a name of Clocks. But good ideas about 
the name did not appear. Do you have any ideas? >ALL

It's nice.
Thread.sleep confuses me a little because the argument's number of 
digits is too big.
I hope so strongly.
