+ Gar1eth Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Gman I'm embarrassed by how long it was before I connected the 90° angle. Don't be embarrassed in the slightest. I didn't know what was going on at first either. I couldn't figure out why the building "was turned" like that. Then the words 90 degrees percolated through my agéd brain, and I realized what the cartoon meant. Gman + sync and + azdr0710 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike carey Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 And in reference to this, how's the winter down under my antipodean friend, @mike carey? Gman Rather mild so far. One really cold night (-4.5C) but otherwise not bad. Around 12C on average most days. Friday was a glorious sunny day, over 14C, perfect day for [bear with me here] the final Boeing 747 passenger flight in Australia, a one hour scenic flight that sold out in eight minutes when tickets went on sale. There were crowds at Canberra airport to watch is take off and land, and people out watching it do a fly-past of central Canberra.

[MEDIA=twitter]1283967932582830082[/MEDIA] One of my favorite facts from an old newspaper feature in the sunday funnies - "Ripley's believe it or not" - claimed that if you include the top of the tail, a 747 is longer and higher than the Wright brother's first light ... A high school friend who traveled some said it was a little nerve-wracking to see the wings bounce up and down when it was taking off but that idea struck me as if it were a giant bird flapping its wings. I only got to ride in one once - on an Air France flight from Paris to SFO returning from a business trip; even in coach, the service was stellar, and the wings did flap ...

Only the USA and Myanmar still use the Imperial System. Thanks for the info about Myanmar. I didn't know that. Actually the U.K. is a mishmash. Look at RM ads. I'll bet you see many (?most) of the UK escorts from the U.K. quote their tallywacker sizes in inches. I've also read that while petrol is dispensed in liters (or litres if you prefer) that engine efficiency is still in miles per gallon. And there are other places the Imperial system still holds sway. As for the Antepode Region @mike carey is probably old enough to remember Imperial System units from his childhood as Australia went metric in 1966 although maybe not enough to actually use them. He and his classmates probably had to throw out all their old wooden rulers. What a waste!! Gman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For personal stats some Brits still use weight in stones (1 stone = 6.35 kilos), that's archaically 'cute'. But only the USA, Myanmar and Liberia still hold on to the old Imperial System, instead of the near universal use of the International System of Measurements (Metric).
