Default Imperial or US gallons....

Gets worst when you consider the USA measurements....

which means one cubic foot is contains 7.481 US funny gallouns or 6.429 Imperial gallons..... or 65 pounds approx.

so the US gallouns have 128 ounces and the Imperial gallon has 160....

...but the ounces US or Imperial are the same size..... althought the quarts are bigger in England....hihihi.....Kornfuzed yet !!!!

Metric is still a nightmare ....... but it seems less so..... but I still buy construction wood as 2x4 inches even though the actual dimensions are 1 1/2 by 3 1/2 inches........

Planes have crashe landed in Western Canada because the ground/flight crew miscalculated fuel requirements when converting between gallons/litres and pounds of fuel.......

Surprising we made it to the moon and back..... or was it a fluke !!!
