    Metric time.

    Hang on minute(50 to the hour)Weezbo, it was my poor attempt at a joke. I know of many crazy EU directives, but they have not come up with that one, yet!
    And, over here in Euroland pie is full of meat or apples and are always round, never square!
    Thanks for the laugh.
    Kind regards.

    I guess you never had to deal with grads

    I'm not sure of the exact origin, but in Europe, surveying is often done in grads. A grad is 1/100th of a right angle.

    They could really fool you and work with radians, which the the angle at which the arc of circumference is equal to the radius of the circle. So there are 2*pi radians in a circle and a radian is about 57 degrees. Who needs round numbers!!

    Weezbo.

    Now you have it Weezbo! It's so easy and it's all going to work really well.

    Talking about the metric system, I get mad at the guys that work for me, when I here them saying things like ''I'll move that 15mm pipe a couple of feet and then I can fit that 3/4'' pipe into that 100mm space''. Is it just me??

    Here in the UK we still us pounds and pence, but most EU countries around us use the Euro. I don't know if I'm living in the 51st state!, part of France! or who we are?

    The only thing I'm sure of, is, that it's cold when the wind blows up my kilt.
    Thanks for reading.

    being a representative

    of the "Productivity Party", i hereby categorically wholeheartedly, with-out a doubt, support the Party's Plank of increasing the standard hour 50%. By having a 16 hour day, the 8 hour work day will automatically be 50% more productive. There will be less time for our children to get into mischief, and most movies will only be an hour long now!!!
