If you have an herbicide that calls for (say) 1:36 dilution, is it easier to

Ten liters, *obviously*.


Obviously? *Tell us the numbers then.

Hint Number One: 1 qt = *32* ounces, not 36.


No ****, halfwit, why do you think I picked 36?


And perhaps you overlook that if we were all metric, the
instructions, containers, etc. would be tailored to the metric
system. But never expect a person trying to make an illogical point
to see the obvious.
