Desperate
"I would have thought that any one with half a brain would know 1000kgs is a tonne!"

Agreed, but Hot Dog's missing 'k', or zeros (330kgs, 230kgs) shows how significant a typo can be.

Sort of makes the point of this thread, I suppose...
Desperate; this is a desperate statement considering the fact that HotDog was merely following the previous posts and the fact that the 000's were missing took nothing away from HotDogs argument. Anyone who has been following this thread would have understood exactly the point that was being made.

What next? Do we have to use the full word kilogram insted of kg or nautical miles per hour instead of knots, instead of kts...this could go on forever.

Please don't turn thread into pedantic ramblings and trivia...let those with something constructive to offer make their point without being picky on trivial points.
