I see that the Aussies/Yanks have something in common -- "creative" spelling and math and a grudge against the price of fuel.
Though it strikes me that fuel is a pretty good bargain compared with bottled water -- it runs about US$1/pint which is roughly equivalent to $2/per litre or $8 per gallon.

on the ute/truck thing, i've aways maintained that a "truck" is able to carrie more than 1 tonne, is normaly a lot harder to drive and requires a special licence

ute's are supposed to be ab aussi invention, a farmer needed a car that he could take the family to church on sunday and still use for work ... thus was born the "Utility"

Is it not terajoules? For disk drives(I know more about them) a terabyte disk drive is a 1000 gigabytes (or a millionXmillion bytes).

You fish guys would change that to tetras LOL.

I knew C1 knew the 3.79 conversion and if I just posted the math explicitly, we could reach the final conclusion about price comparison.

Even I, almost infallible in my young days...at least that is how I choose to remember it...sigh...the good old days, would occassionally make that kind of math error. :wink:

That's an El Camino. Now if they'd only remake the Dodge Rampage out of a chopped up Neon...

A tetrajoule is an electric yellow tetra.

I hope oz wrote the contract with China as 'tetrajoules', so you can give them 20 years of little fish. LOL

like the reference to younger... had a few drinkies last night on the red,
every time I picked my glass up it was full. trying to empty it was a challenge.( Local stuff ) must have been the square bear that damaged me before drinkies with friends.
C1 not feeling so young
