All of Our politicians make the Dukes of Hazzards Boss Hog look like a Prince. Huh. I didn't notice that omission. For some reason the U.S. Department of Agriculture didn't want to go there and report on lumber moisture content. Not sure why. |

For converting anything to anything else: http://www.convertit.com/Go/ConvertI.../Converter.ASP Note the properties to be converted have to be consistent (i.e. you can't convert length to volume. I haven't tried converting mass to energy, but I hear it can be done. -Zz |

That can result in some interesting answers if you don't use the correct words or abbreviations. I tried to convert 1000 g (for gallons) to q (for quarts). Conversion Result: Note: I do not know the definition of "q". So I changed the "q" to "qt": Conversion Result: 1000 gravitational acceleration (acceleration) TO fluid quart (volume) = 10362571.4290321 1 / meter^2 second^2 Now, I'm sure that's useful to someone, but certainly not to me! ;-) |

I mean, going from furlongs/fortnight to kilometers/nanoseconds is easy as pi. |
