And they wonder why I say I am amazed that cars actually run now-a-days :rolleyes:

Better that than having physicists design them.

You know, I wanted to try to cook, but I couldn't figure out what those archaic measures meant. Volume measures like 'cup' and 'spoon'. How much does that translate to in SI units anyway?

You've got a scale on your kitchen counter accurate enought to measure 1,5 grams of salt? The teaspoon method is brilliant :smile:

Calculators? Engineers don't need no stinking calculators. Just set [itex]g=10 m/s^2[/itex] and [itex]\pi=3[/itex].
You got that right!
