Ok, Boyd, the hill turkeys have one leg shorter than the other, ...if he turns around, will he fall down? I mean a half a turn.? Or will he just lean? Or does it depend on how much he weighs and if he has good equalibrium? Or does quantum physics even enter into the equation.??

If cubic means square, then how do you measure a round chamber for cubic centimeters?

you start in the corner.....duh!!!

I think you have to melt the little cubics down to a liquid form and pour 'em in the round hole. But not too hot or it'll 'vaperate and that sometimes will throw off the 'quasion. I think that's where the square peg in a round hole came from. Although now that I think back I think it's a round peg in a square hole. I think if you want a square peg in a round hole you need to use the hill turkey inversion table.

Beeeeeeeeeeep, WRONG!! There is no corner!! Just funnin ya FHB!!

Gary, the short legged turkey equasion is only for metric cubits.

[flyinhillbilly]

the hill turkey can only go short leg uphill ( makes them easy to hunt) if they turn the short leg downhill, they'll just go in circles

[pro70z28]

If you just take the square root of the turkey leg & divide by a piece o' pie, it comes out to about the same. Give or take.

Ok, here's a real question that I don't understand. When talking about blowers, the rotor speed is one thing and I've heard people talk of rotor tip speed. If the tip of the rotor is part of the rotor, how can it be going any faster than the rotor itself?? By the tip, do they mean the edge of the rotor? That would mean possibly the outside edge of the rotor would be turning at a different rate than the center of the rotor. Is this what is meant? It's still the same isn't it?

It's the Maypole effect. .............. Nuff said
