A governor decides to grant partial pardons to prisoners who are serving their time, reducing
all sentences by half. Sentences of 20 years are cut to 10, sentences of 10 years cut to 5,
and so forth. But there are some prisoners serving life sentences. The warden has to follow
the governor's order, but how can he decide fairly about the lifers?

In the first round a number of lifers may be found whose time served exceeds their remaining years to live. Unavoidable.
