The question might as well be "Why are they so close to roman miles ?". As I understand it , it's a complete coincidence that one minute of arc at the equator happens to be very close to one statute mile. e.g. the French or Canadians aren't tugging their collective beards wondering why a nautical kilometer is slightly longer than a regular one. ;) _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
