USCG is reporting that the term and nautical application of "knot" will be replaced in 2014 by Grek-Gohk!, which is the Klingon unit equal to .987, .878, and .799 miles depending on sea conditions. ROTFL!!! I wonder what that would be in Ferengi units of measure. Or Vulcan units of measure. For Vulcan measurments check out these great Vuls ! The BB team is a bit rough but gotta love the VB team!!!!! At least I do. http://vulcans.uhh.hawaii.edu/ Also be advised that Ferengi Rule of Acquisition No. 6 requires: Every vessel shall at all times proceed at a safe speed measured in KPH so that she can take proper and effective action to acquire, take, or possess anything of value appropriate to the prevailing circumstances and conditions. |
