Would it also help if we did the same for time and went to a decimal clock with 10 hours per day and 100 minutes per hour, and 100 seconds per minute? (it would also be more accurate, 100,000 seconds per day versus 86,400, so the seconds would be smaller too!)
Also time zones could be decimal, who needs 24 of them, we could just use 10. The same for latitude and longitude, and any 'angle based' need, using 100 degree circles with 100 seconds between each degree. (or 1000 decidegrees per circle?) ... We could just go computer and do it all in binary, or to be more succinct in hexadecimal. ... Then there is that nasty little thing called language. If we all spoke, wrote, read, and understood the same language the same way we could have less mis-understanding in most realms of life. Even in one language we have dialects that keep us apart now. Queens English vs Americal English vs Scottish or Welsh English vs NYC English vs New Jersey English vs ... we can go on. .... Or we could figure things are what they are, deal with it, and go on with life. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
