That's very kind of you to go to all that trouble. Thank you.

I'll cut and paste it and keep it for future reference.

With all these metric measurements, they nearly do my head in.
I'd rather stick with imperial anytime. At least we won that one over the European Union.

I got tired of looking it up all the time and I copy/pasted this for reference - it comes in handy. I hope it hleps.
