I didn't know Canada had even asked for it. There should be a new stadium in Hamilton, ON for it by then, but the propects for it being built in time for the PanAm games are getting slimmer.
"Using encryption on the Internet is the equivalent of arranging an armored car to deliver credit-card information from someone living in a cardboard box to someone living on a park bench."
Although it's true that a US pint is only a measly 16 floz, the US floz contains more liquid that an imperial floz as its volume is set as the volume of 1oz of water at room temperature (21C-ish), whereas the imperial floz is set as the volume of 1 oz of liquid water at (just above) freezing point...
So how anyone can say "it's easier to trade with the US by keeping the same measurements" clearly hasn't done their research and is talking hogwash - imperial measurements are not the same as the US measurements of the same name...

Prepositions
Everything went to hell as soon as Capt Kirk was first to boldy split an infinitive as none had been split before.
I just want to round up all those who forget that a preposition is something you never end a sentence with.
Oops.
Perfect for captain cyborg
This is exactly what the nutter needs to keep his sub-dermal GPS devices charged up. Can't wait to see the press release....
Captain Cyborg's brother ?
Am I being overly sceptical, or is this guy somehow related to a certain Kevin Warwick of Reading University ?
US pint not really 4/5 imperial pint
