Alright, in the interest of international standards, let's see if we can sort this out.

So let's see... 9,000 inches/rainfall... divide by 0.254... carry the 3... that gets you 84 span, 1 cubit by volume... so that's 17 Hands, 11 Fingers, Whitworth scale... subset for n...so that's 21,000 Troy ounces per Rod, or "fathom"...

I come up with 21 Hectares to the Bushel, or "Metric Tonne/hour" as you might call it.

No problem, always happy to help.

Not sure about that base number, though; that seems high. :lol:

Wait, what the hell are you talking about?
Dude, everybody has 12 fingers. What do you have over there, like 8 or 13?
You're winding me up, right?
That explains a lot... it seems that normal people have a variable number of fingers depending on what they're counting - 12, 3, etc - very handy. Myself, I'm stuck with 10 all day every day...

Variable Finger Total! I suffer from VTF!

I don't know what else might explain my Epic Math Skills.(see above)

Although I was accused of being a wise-ass instead of working by 1 or 2 teachers, back in the day...

Another lovable quote I would have sig'd.

Except there's nowhere to sig it.

....

I don't think quote tags work on locations, do they?
