Speaking of clothes, I was in my local K-mart this week and noticed even the dress shirts are now sold in small, medium, large, XL, XXL (or 2XL), etc.  I think this is a means of getting around the cost of having to use different sizing systems in different markets.  The movement away from inches seems to be accelerating.

My wife took me to buy clothes today  - she is nice to me.

In Eddie Bauer was a one liter vacuum flask only labelled as one liter

I am going to write and congratulate them.
