What an article!
One extract said "When given a choice, he said many men prefer condoms smaller than the standard minimum 6.3 inches long, with more than half ordering those less than 5.12 inches" - 6.3 inches is 16.0 cm and 5.12 inches is 13.0 cm. Regarding the condom holding 18 L of air - what would the pressure of the air be? _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Harry Wyeth Sent: 14 October 2007 22:10 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:39606] New low in AP reporting This AP article on a condom safety conference has to be a new low in stupid measurement. Imagine writing that a proper condom is supposed to hold 4.76 "gallons" [18 L] of air! No one--no one!-- measures air in gallons. The link may not work without my login. Someone advise me if that is the case and I'll try again. http://www.sacbee.com/840/story/427056.html HARRY WYETH
