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.
