In Reply to: Oh, but that makes too much sense. posted by Presto on February 14, 2007 at 15:43:47:
There is a huge difference between "miles and miles" and a hundred feet (or less). Miles and miles turns off the brain, it just can't matter, etc.Of course, you chose to still try to make out the "6 feet" as insiginficant, while all the other arguments and measurement info I posted in the reference material is still true.
Folks should read the cited posts and web pages, and see for thermselves what you have glossed over so casually.
