Overnight Bus Hotel

Cool idea. Just like sleeping cabins on a night train.

 

Are there still night trains? Thirty years ago, I took a night train from Paris to Amsterdam. A family member who went to Europe recently said they didn't have them anymore.

All I know without looking it up is that a meter is about a yard.

 

An inch is 2.54 centimeters. 5 ml is a teaspoon. 30 ml is an ounce. (I think it's actually 28 point something is an ounce. But for all intents and purposes, it's 30 ml. )

39.3 inches, I believe.

One of the reasons I know the metric system as well as I do is because I have a scientific background. People in the sciences tend to know the metric system backwards and forwards.

One reason when it comes to temperatures I prefer Fahrenheit over Celsius is because when it's 100F you know it's HOT!!! Unlike say 45C. :p:p:p

OTOH,a freezing point of 0 and a boiling point of 100 makes a lot more sense than a freezing point of 32 and a boiling point of 212.

I agree!

And then there's the Kelvin scale, which makes even more sense. 0 on the Kelvin scale is absolute zero- total absence of thermal energy.
