A column is always 3 dimensional. Area is 2D. How high would that column be? One molecule thick/high? The other point is, fuel consumption is usually measured as km/L and less commonly as liters per 100 km km = length liter = length^3 km/l = 1/length^2 = 1/area How does that square up with fuel consumption being simply area? shiv
