Heh. If you haven't tried this yet, visit Google and ask: what is 15000 feet in meters? Or 28.90 in Hg in kPa? Each result includes a built-in calculator with preset conversions factors and also a nice hint on doing calculations without using their tool. Hard to beat! Frank Reed
Great. The problem is when you scroll down a bit further it also tells you where you're asking from. Thus adding truth to the term 'We know where you live'. Creepy' and too clever by half. I must try it from the middle of the Humber to see what it comes up with. DaveP
