Well, I admit it is a problem to think in all these fractions of an inch. We have it easier in the metric zone of the world. No, Prof., 9/16" is just a bit over 1/2" (which is 8/16"). I agree with you regarding the metric system, but even you should be able to figure out that 3/4 of anything is the same as 12/16 of the same thing. _______________________________________________ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/hans%40pizka.de _______________________________________________ post: [EMAIL PROTECTED] unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
