[QUOTE="Karl Peterson, post: 96869, member: 4429"] Re: Millihelen: a measurment previously unknown to me. If we are going to have a conversation about little known units of measurements, we would be remiss to not bring up theregister. A trade mag for the IT crowd that routinely goes off topic in all sorts of directions and has editors with good humour, they decided years ago to do the right thing and make up their own units of measurement for use in cases where it just doesn't matter. I enjoy their reporting to this day. [url=http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/08/24/vulture_central_standards/]So, what's the velocity of a sheep in a vacuum? ? The Register[/url] Karl P [/QUOTE]
