ALL About US - Clarification. “Ten miles square” In response to the last issue of All About US, I recd the following message. To all readers of All About US, From: mingobat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Ten miles square To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tuesday, September 16, 2008, 8:23 PMI'm probably the eightysix thousandth person to point out that a tenmile square contains 100 square miles. It's an easy mistake to make.John To which I replied: No, John, you are the very first. Good question, and based on past performance, I guess a Supreme Court Justice could see it the same way, but what you describe is 10 square miles squared, not 10 miles "square"? Check this out. http://www.civil-liberties.com/pages/howcome.html If anyone has anything to add, plz respond to me at the below addy so I can share with everyone who recd the original. Thanks in advance. Rich Martin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
