Re: stranger than real life

Martin-85
Hello elecrafters,

funny enough us metric germans measure quite everything metric, except the
diameters of waterpipes for fresh water. There we use inches or fractions of inches.

The used water (e.g. the water to flush the toilet or the water that
runs down the downpipe [downspout]) leaves the house
in pipes measured in millimeters.

Let's hope the conversion process from English input to metric output works
or you are in big trouble.
