| 482967 | 2006-09-07 22:31:00 | By using the formula F = GMm / r^2, I found out the gravitational acceleration in Australia to be 9.86 N/kg (c.f. 9.81 N/kg on average) Ain't that just typical of the Ozzies. They always have to go that one step better - just like the Yanks :p :p |

| 482969 | 2006-09-08 04:57:00 | Here in PN we use a local gravity of 9.801-9.802 to calibrate our forcemeters. I don't remember where the figure was obtained from or how much it varied in NZ. | user (1404) | ||

| 482972 | 2006-09-09 02:17:00 | Wrong George. :( Jaffa (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffas_(candy)) is a registered tradename. As you can see there's even an article in Wikipedia. But they got one thing wrong. The best sound comes on the stepped "sloping" floor in a picture theatre. ("Cinemas" probably have carpet on the stepped floor to deaden the sound; real picture theatres didn't. :D ) Of course, if Auckanders are typically soft centred, with a bright orange spherical casing that's up to them. Perhaps some of them are self-centred and turn orange only when enraged at the rest of New Zealand not wanting to pay for its thugby stadium. I don't know. ;) |

| 482973 | 2006-09-09 10:11:00 | Aucklanders Ah, I see... But how does that relate to what Metla had once said to us about Ninja: "Where tf is Ninja? Has he been kidnapped by the Jaffas?" Cheers :) |
