Hi John,

Not sure of the solution off the top of my head.

One way would be to grab the time, add 30 secs, loop until time reached.
As far as I know sleeping should be fine, other scripts will continue to
run.

Is useful for vbscript functions.

Or I can add a sys.sleep(<seconds>) function, if that would be
better?
