Today was a rare summer day in Charleston. High barely over 30 and a low humidity, thanks to a cold front that passed through yesterday. That provided the occasion for Sally and me to go out and catch up a bit on yard work. Part way through edging the lawn (a semiannual affair at the Frysinger lot) I had to refuel my Ryobi Universal Yard Tool. As I picked up the Rubbermaid fuel can to refuel it, I noticed that the label on that plastic container said "1U.S.gal/4U.S.oz/3.90L". I'm glad they didn't let that complicated metric system throw them off too much to provide good old, familiar American HodgePodge. ;-) Jim -- Metric Methods(SM) "Don't be late to metricate!" James R.
