Hi again, Jeff;
 
 JE> Hiya!
 
 BL> The physical size of the new components (18x32mm)
 BL> [DxL] doesn't seem to present any problems.
 JE> Call me an ol' phart, but I don't know what 18mm is...
 JE> rough calculations show that 18mm is somewhere around 6 inches.
 JE> 100mm in one Meter, right?
 II> Right.
 
WRONG!  <|-<  Mili = 1/1000 so it's 1,000 MM in a M.  DUH!
 
 JE> That's what I thought, too. But, that's not right.  100mm = 1cm. 
 JE> 100cm = 1m. 
 JE> Whatever - lets see how long it takes before YOUR message is
 JE> crossposted to  another echo, to show how WRONG you were...
 
Hey, I crossposted a message into the CHRONIC_PAIN echo and in 2 days
I've received posts from 2 people disagreeing and thinking that _I_
was the author, even though it was plainly labeled as crossposted and
the name of the previous poster!  Oh well... I'm not perfect either,
and I admit it.   :-/
 
Attempting to D-R-A-G this back to topic, at least he FINALLY got the
right measurements.  Perhaps we should all get rulers marked in both
standards?  At least all electronic measurements are already in Metric.
Can't you just imagine figuring the current and voltage using 2.2 (base
12) watts and 47 (Metric) Ohms?   :-o
