I don't know if it is what you are looking for but as there are 60 seconds
in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, if you custom format the cells as
"[h]:mm:ss" (without the quotes) then it will add up the degrees as if it
was time. The square brackets stop the hours from rolling over into days
when they reach 24.
