It's going up another 1.41 cents per litre. New price = $1.41.6 per
litre.

Whats a litre?

About a US quart. Everyone else in the world uses metric, not imperial
or US measurement. US is a holdout in some businesses. Medicine,
science and much international trade is now in metric.

Take the UK, even they now do litres having abandoned the Imperial
measure some time ago.

Litre is the common spelling, however for US, liter is the official
spelling.

So for a rough estimate, 4 litres is a US gallon. But to be entirely
accurate, 3.7854118 litres in a US gallon.

1 Liter is 1.05668821 US quarts.

Clear as mud?


The easy way to remember is written on the side of a half liter water
bottle. 16.5 oz
A liter is an oz bigger than a quart and 4 liters is 4 oz more than a
gallon.

They do use the metric system to scam booze buyers. A "fifth" of
whisky is now 750ml and a "gallon" jug of wine is 3 liters.
That really seems to be the only major industry here that has gone
metric.

**************

We got screwed when we converted to metric.
With our old Imperial system... a quart was larger than a liter.. but the
price stayed the same..to offset conversion they claimed.

$4.09 for 89octane 10% ethanol blend here.
Last time I bought boat gas I got 50 gallons for $3.57 or so. It

I would buy right now. Unions in Yemen have just caused some

Libya taps are off, a Canadian pipeline also went down for major

It's going up another 1.41 cents per litre. New price = $1.41.6 per
litre.

Whats a litre?

About a US quart. Everyone else in the world uses metric, not imperial
or US measurement. US is a holdout in some businesses. Medicine,
science and much international trade is now in metric.

Take the UK, even they now do litres having abandoned the Imperial
measure some time ago.

Litre is the common spelling, however for US, liter is the official
spelling.

So for a rough estimate, 4 litres is a US gallon. But to be entirely
accurate, 3.7854118 litres in a US gallon.

1 Liter is 1.05668821 US quarts.

Clear as mud?

That's because most Amereecans think they know it all. That's why
they're hated so much all over the world. Arrogance, pure and simple.

It IS their downfall.

How you guys doing with your asbestos mining.

I did not say Americans are assholes....just arrogant.

I travelled to Jamiaca in 1981, and several Americans were calling the
Jamaicans " boy"....thats why they LOVE the Canadians, and the
Germans.

Thats why everyone loves Canadians. We dont pull that ****.
