The speed of light is 1.8*10e12 furlongs per fortnight.


Very same engine, 46 years ago, three fingers went around the top pulley,
with belt on. Working at a gas station at the time, fiddling with the
carburetor and not being careful. Right ring finger, second joint took the
brunt of the ordeal. Got away with it for decades, until 30 years later it
got arthritic. Now joint is about 20° out of alignment and does not match
the spacing of the piano keys. My other passion.
