OOC: Master Converter.

I just thought that in a big online bit like this, with all the different sorts of RPing going on, some confusion is bound to come up, for example, I was raised on the Standard System of Measurement, but most folks I know online use the Metric System of Measurement, this can get sort of confusing, I'm sure I'm not the only one who can get confused by this sort of thing, so I looked up this: the Master Converter (http://web.ask.com/redir?bpg=http%3a%2f%2fweb.ask.com%2fweb%3fq%3dHow%2bdo%2bI%2bconvert%2bmiles%2bto%2bkilometers%253f %26o%3d0%26page%3d1&q=How+do+I+convert+miles+to+kilometers%3f&u=http%3a%2f%2ftm.wc.ask.com%2fr%3ft%3dan%26s%3da%26uid%3d2cf202a16cf202a16%26sid%3d3cf202a16cf202a1 6%26qid%3dB88FD7F9C21BA342A75E1595ADC786D6%26io%3d1%26sv%3dza5cb0def%26o%3d0%26ask%3dHow%2bdo%2bI%2b convert%2bmiles%2bto%2bkilometers%253f%26uip%3dcf202a16%26en%3dte%26eo%3d-100%26pt%3dConversion%2bcalculators%2b%253a%2bmetric%2bto%2benglish%2band%2benglish%2bto%2bmetric%26 ac%3d9%26qs%3d0%26pg%3d1%26ep%3d1%26te_par%3d102%26te_id%3d%26u%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.globalrph.com%2fc onversions.htm&s=a&bu=http%3a%2f%2fwww.globalrph.com%2fconversions.htm&qte=0&o=0), it can convert kilometers to miles, and back again, as well as a number of other conversions, like fathoms to feet for instance, or gallons to liters, I hope this helps someone.

Excellent idea.

I prefer metric myself, and I use it in my posts as much as possible.
