Sorry for the delay in the new poll! It was caused by the combined forces of my crap programming and Matt Byrne.

In trying to sort it out I seem to have lost all the votes for the tetris poll. Ooops. I will see if I can reinstate them now.

In a moment of Esther-like experimentation, I voted for Dubya as both rower and cox. How does that fit in with the 1x idea...?

Am i going to become and SI unit? A benchmark of stupidness? What do i expect, i am at Oxford after all....
by dw229 - Tue 27th Apr 2004, 6:05pm
"and SI unit"

It seems so! :)
by mjb - Tue 27th Apr 2004, 6:15pm
They're SA units, aren't they ??
by Dumb blonde - Tue 27th Apr 2004, 8:50pm
Yes. Blame comprehensive school typing education for that
by dw229 - Tue 27th Apr 2004, 10:37pm
SA? No, they were Nazi storm troopers Matt.

Esther - I forgive you. You are from Nottingham, home of gun crime, after all... :)

I thought SS were the stormtroopers.
SA is the universally accepted "Système d'Aviron" standard for measuring things.
by dw229 - Tue 27th Apr 2004, 11:08pm
SA = Sturm Abteilung

c.59 attoparsecs tall
Isn't it the Glass?

Hmm. Reckon 1JMcIG = approx. 65 attoparsecs

Now that he's finished, perhaps time can be measured in MCPhDs?
by only 58.7 attoparsecs tall - Wed 28th Apr 2004, 1:56pm
Yes, 65 attoparsecs is a few millimetres over 2m tall, or a shade under 6'7"

Google Calculator agrees. Funnily enough, it doesn't appear to include the JMcIG as a unit of height.

I reckon 1 Smoot is a little under 59 attoparsecs

You're a little off with your estimate it would seem...

New unit: 1 Falcon Junior Quad = 1 broken arm

Ow said: New unit: 1 Falcon Junior Quad = 1 broken arm
Sounds painful.
Also 1(Pikey kid) + 1(Handful of rocks) = 1(Bruised and bleeding rower who really wishes he could have got out and chased after them whilst brandishing his blade)
by dw229 - Fri 30th Apr 2004, 9:45am
But Matt, even you admit you can't run... :)
by mjb - Fri 30th Apr 2004, 9:53am
I'm very dangerous over short distances ...
(Or should that be "dangerous over very short distances" ?)
by managed to avoid being hit by stones - Fri 30th Apr 2004, 10:55am
actually, we probably could have gotten out and given chase - all you have to do is cross the river at the lock - and there's a footpath that leads right to the corner

I wonder how close this will be to the final crew. I'm also wondering who didn't vote for our Goldie man.

Maybe someone who saw him lose his form and get beaten in the RTT regatta?
