A Conversation for Units of Measurement
Well Done!
Nora - back from the Dublin meet! Started conversation Jun 30, 2002
An exhaustive entry.. wow! Your quote reminds me of a cartoon a few years ago, when the US sent astronauts to fix Mir:
the feet of an astronaut visible under Mir, wrenches and miscellaneous tools floating about him like a garage mechanic, and a speech or thought bubble saying "Oh sh*t, it's all in metric". My (American) science teacher had it stuck on a filing cabinet.
P.S. - I think I may accidentally have posted this subject with no text. If so, sorry.
Key: Complain about this post
Well Done!
