FFR - I could not agree more, I say the exact same thing every day.
I confused one of the chimps when converting 170g of yoghurt into ml. I simply stated that peach yoghurt has a specific gravity of .6 therefore my yoghurt was in fact only 99ml.
His reply was "er" and I strolled off.
Alas it is only one small victory amongst many horrible starts to the day.
On a final note, a friend of my was not allowed to take his milkshake drink with him, he chugged it like being back at UNI - class.
