Ralph, I appreciate the correct terminology for the English measure, I knew it had to be different. I do believe that they did invent he language how else can you explain why it is one of the most complicated languages to learn.

She revealed that she had at that time 1,385 different plants (she can quote the Latin names for all of them also). A most unfortunate tactical error. When the subject of my cameras came up the next time, I inquired how the plant inventory was doing. She has been much more understanding since then. But then, there is also the point about having two (2) people with obsessive-compulsive addictive personalities living in the same house.

I am doubly blessed on this final count. All three of my children have OCD/ADD/ADHD to some extent. My wife, even though she will not admit it, is OCD (gets it honestly from her mother). And I am as my children, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. By the by, I am also from Jet City.
