You haven't discovered the google calculator? Go to google and try this
search: "14.3 foot pounds in newton meters". Don't include the quotation
marks. I've found very few units that it won't convert.

Huh, I'm impressed. Whoda thunk they covered this one?

14.3 (inches per second) = 1.14621067 × 10**20 angstroms per millenium

Maybe density, in AMUs per cubic parsec?

Managed that one fine. The only thing I've tried that it won't handle is
inches of mercury as a unit of pressure.

The calculator that comes with Mac OSX can convert to in-Hg.

Then maybe you ought to get on google feedback and tell them to start
running Macs.
