Ah yes, the pifometric system. Smidgens, dollops, pinches, etc. There's a full
explanation of the pifometric system at
http://www.rigoler.com/Blagues3/vrac14.shtml . It's in French, and I don't
know all those units, but it's still funny.
If you want a rather silly semi-literate translation put the URL into
http://babelfish.altavista.com/
Then select French to English (or your choice of language) and it will
translate the web page for you. Sort of.
