[QUOTE="Singed, post: 601149, member: 6261"] I appreciate the conversion correction Davy, neither my arithmetic or my memory are what they were. My conversion was based, with some margin of memory error , on fluid conversion rates. 1 imperial ounce of fluid is slightly less than 34 ml, and 1 US oz is slightly under 30 ml. For years I have been using 32 ml as an average btw the two. My reasoning was that 1 ml of water = 1 g, basic standard for metric. I learned the metric system when it was adopted in Canada, I was about ten. I should have checked my figures because we were converting both Imperial and American units for everything. Makes me wonder how much I've screwed up in the last 40+ years. Notwithstanding, I do appreciate the correction, thank-you. I also appreciate the commiseration, it's nice to know someone else understands the situation in all its aspects. :coffee:;) [/QUOTE]
