Has it occured to anyone that you _can_ not reply to rif raf, not
reply to those misguided souls that reply to them, and if you want to
be hard, reply only to boating posts. Comments on the state of the NG,
while not individually obnoxious, just add to the noise level. Think
S/N before you post. Do all this and the problem goes away.

Now for the obligatory boating content. I have an 22 ft Alum Cuddy
with a Mercruiser 175 hp 4 banger. Does anyone know the engine
displacement?

3.7 liter. You can do the math if you are looking for C.I. :-)

Thank you. All units are equally convenient when you have the
Calculator That Takes No Prisoners [HP48]. It has all the conversions,
all the physical constants, and a bunch of equations. 226 cu in.

The correct answer is 225.78769 (3.7X61.0237). Wow. That's cool. My wife
wouldn't buy me one of those fancy shmancy calculators, but she did throw a
pocket ref by Thomas Glover into my Christmas stocking one year. ;-)
