On 2001-07-04, I went on a bicycle ride with a friend.  I noticed while he
was filling his tires with air, that the pressure was stated in 3 units on
the tire:

psi/kgf/cm^2/kPa

The kg/cm^2 was in small print and the psi and kPa in larger print.  The
pressure was 1.8 kgf/cm^2 and 180 kPa.  I didn't look at the psi.

But, it is the first time I ever saw kilopascals on a bike tire.

Keiner ist hoffnungsloser versklavt als derjenige, der irrt�mlich glaubt
frei zu sein.

There are none more hopelessly enslaved then those who falsely believe they
are free!

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)
