food, beer, mods, admins, and no insulting of anyones mothers or sisters. Anyone that goes off topic will be reported per OC rules.

I will begin with I hope you all have a great day. I cannot believe how cold it is outside. I am ready for spring time. Also will rep anyone that posts.

I drank a Harp Lager last night with somebody's mom. It was great until she tried to administer a modification to the food her sister was cooking.

I'm guessing it is the British's fault. They've been screwing with weights and measurements for centuries.

Good info
A nautical mile is based on the circumference of the planet Earth. If you were to cut the Earth in half at the equator, you could pick up one of the halves and look at the equator as a circle. You could divide that circle into 360 degrees. You could then divide a degree into 60 minutes. A minute of arc on the planet Earth is 1 nautical mile. This unit of measurement is used by all nations for air and sea travel.


So a nautical mile at sea level is shorter than a nautical mile at elevation?

A knot is a unit of measure for speed. If you are traveling at a speed of 1 nautical mile per hour, you are said to be traveling at a speed of 1 knot.
Doesn't that mean if 1 knot at sea level and 1 knot at elevation (like in a plain) that you are not travelling the same speed? And 1 knot in a submerged submarine is slower than 1 knot in a boat?
