clearly it was an automated conversion; and since the first two numbers were dimensionless they didn't need changed. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Your first mistake was assuming Microsoft cared.
Your second mistake was assuming the person you were talking to actually knows anything besides "how to (fill in blank) for dummies".

I love that one... Imagine calling your doctor, telling him about chest pains (Or some other random thing), and getting the reply, "Have you tried turning it off and on?"

I remember someone on here a few years ago saying they had been in hospital after their heart started beating ridiculously fast and they had to stop his heart and start it again to make it beat properly again. As he put it they effectively turned him off and on again.

That's one case where Twitter is actually useful:

I seem to remember that she stopped doing it for some reason - but I can't recall where I saw that.

Exactly what I am thinking...
Really people, would you treat a plugged in power saw with this level of respect? No?
I get really careful around anything sharp and moving fast. A firearm is nothing more than a tool. Other than being an idiot, let's see what else he did wrong:
a) Pointed it at something he did not intend to shoot 
b) had his finger on the trigger
c) didn't even check to see if it was loaded
Darwin award indeed.
I killed some brain cells last night and finally caught SHARKNADO! It was so bad, my wife was laughing. The part that made me cringe was the sexy chick with the pump shotgun... waving it around, finger on the trigger, scanning past the other people. I know it's a movie and a silly one at that, but....

I haven't seen the movie, but I think the chick as Tara Ried, an ex porn star. She should stick to blowjobs and anal fisting. 
Did you see the another crap-tastic "original" movie that was on scifi this weekend? Sharktopus vs Pteracuda - I'm surprised SciFi still as any viewers.

Okay, I guess I never would have known that . The best part is when the hero happens to be eaten by the shark that ate her. After this movie, I didn't have the stomach for the next one - Sharktopus vs. Pteracuda....
It's okay to have a couple of these shows, but when your material is so weak that this is a hit, that's a warning sign. Got to go club another developer here. Not allows to bring in devices that go bang bang, but they didn't say anything about a two by four.
