Internet Rankings are the "on-line" game discussion and rankings, and PBEM Rankings are the "more than two" player PBEM games. |
thank you quinns. that was a little more insightful that berXpert's explanation. 
nevermind, berXpert

I C
26 miles ?
dont you americans ever get tired of your very own measurements (inch, pound, mile, yard, ...) ?
i mean 1 yard is not even a whole number of inches, is it ?
and an american mile is not even the same as an english mile, right ?
well, as you prefer

 I got sick of the English system 40 years ago... and 30 and 20 and 10. The point is, we have to understand both Metric and English systems here. Most of our existing construction here is measured in inches and feet. All existing calculations are in square feet, board feet, yards, cubic feet, gallons, etc. All of our lumber is cut in 2x4's, 4x8's, (inches that is), etc. We tried to make the conversion to metric decades ago, but we are still here in English mostly. It is not easy to convert and the industries and people are not very willing. So for all it's worth, you Euro's can speak multiple languages, but for some strange reason many of you can't speak multiple measuring systems!! WE IN THE UNITED STATES CAN!! (but we only know one language  )
SO THAT IS 42.2 KILOMETERS! IS THAT BETTER!!!
