not easy for me, metric from birth, to comprehend all this 10mm socket mirth. In any toolbox I ever owner the 10mm wrenches, spanners, sockets,...were the most numerous. 9, 14,7 - these were sometimes lacking...

Another 10mm wrench was among the missing when I pulled out my rack of wrenches the other day. I figured I'd pick one up at the big-box store next time I was there. Of all the sizes, 10mm had the fewest in stock.

And this is in the US. I'm a firm believer in the 10mm myth.

Although 1/2" ones seem to grow legs around here, too.

Well, I think we just learned where all our $@!?* 10mm sockets have gone.

I think the UN needs to convene a commission on repatriating all those appropriated 10mm's that @double u has stashed in their tool boxes!

Jmaes Lovelock - originator of the Gaia Theory, just passed away (at age 103 - he had a good innings). He had a good sesne of humour as exemplified in one alleged riposte.


Richard Branson: James I’m starting a new airline, have I your permission to call it ‘Gaia Airlines’
James Lovelock: Yes, if I have your permission to open brothel and call it ‘Fly Virgin’
