Well it's obvious: A fluid ounce is 1/20th of a pint. Except in the U.S. where it's 1/16th of a pint. A fluid ounce is the same in the States and the UK about 30 ml) but a UK pint is 20 oz and a US pint is 16 (and a UK gallon is correspondingly larger than a US gallon. That's why you should always get beer and fuel in the UK rather than the US, so you get more in your pint and your car will get more miles per gallon! ;-) -- Mark Roberts - Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
