FW: units of measurement, explained

[Brian Wruble]

Guys, Steve was kidding, and I took the bait.  My face continues to redden
as the thread goes on.  In my own defense --- it was before I'd had my
coffee, my cat was sitting on the mousepad, and I have a teenage daughter.

73 and Happy Holidays to all

Brian, W3BW

Very good.  You got me!  Also very funny.  I am happy to be your straight
man.  73, Brian

Uh-oh.  Is my humor really that dry?

... or is yours drier?  ;-)

Interesting topic, but we're overloading the list with way too many
postings.

Let's let these threads rest for now :-)
