1 gallon of gasoline equals 5.8 to 6.5 lbs.

Lets see, that means I was off by what? 19%?
More like 28% ~ 35%. Ask Jax to do the maths for you.
I guess I can estimate the weight of gasoline better than you
estimate
windspeed. The last time you tried, I remember you being off by 25%.
Well, your memory sucks. If you'd have been able to understand the
graph that Pony posted, you'd have realized I was within 10% of the
windspeed at the time I was sailing.
When that was pointed out, you defended it by whining about not
being
able to afford instruments.
Liar. Post where I wrote anything about the cost of instruments.
I will admit that I did not go and weigh a gallon of gas before I
posted, even though I can afford to.
You can afford a gallon of gas now? Congratulations.
Are you trying to be like bob, or can't you help it?
