All such arbitrary measurement systems are silly. We should base all
measurements on the half-life of Cesium, as the good Lord intended.

Crap - now I've got Pepsi all over the monitor!!! :)

ROTFL!!!!


Sorry 'bout that. I would have sent advance warning, but I'm never all
that
sure that others will find my sense of humor...humorous. ;-)


Sounds like we share a similar trait. :)


Maybe the 1/2 life of Pepsi? Easier to measure something with a less than
25k year 1/2 life. Actualy do not recall what Cesium 1/2 life is, but
Plutonium is 25K and the way some rogue nations threaten the world, may be
more common than we desire.
