I thought I already said I didn't care.Originally Posted by lynx
But since you guys won't let it drop, I did a bit of Google research.
Lynx is correct, there is a difference between European ( from hereon called "Imperial") meters and Canadian "metres".
This is an Imperial meter.Originally Posted by Google
Which means that a Canadian metre = approx. 24 feet.Originally Posted by Google
This may change as global warming accelerates.

Arrrh clocker... You just don't know snow.
And it wasn't a "whale blubber fire"... It was a fuel oil accumulation fire.
Got me there, eh?Originally Posted by Virtualbody1234
You're right...I don't "know" snow.
I do know oxygen deprivation...here in Mile-High Denver we depend on bottled air to survive.

I just know you're dying for me to ask.....
WTF is a "fuel oil accumulation fire"?
We use nothing but clean, safe and efficient nuclear power down here.
I vaguely remember fossil fuels, but it's been so long...
I definitely remember reading that at last year's US/Canadian Trade Negotiations we offered to sell you the technology for "electricity", but all you would offer in return was a blueprint for a "Caribou Powered Personal Transportation Device".
This turned out to be a (crudely) modified Amish carriage pulled by some sort of prehistoric antlered creature.
Which, as it happens, we can import from China at half the proposed Canadian price.
Globalization is a bitch.

Note that this "weather report" fails to provide any actual temperatures at all.
Further research through a less deceptive source ( Fox News!) reveals that this "warm and very humid" airmass will send your temps skyrocketing all the way up to 13C.
How do you folks survive vacations to Jamaica?
