    1000 litres to the cubic metre. ergo 465 litres.

    Bollocks that's right. I confused Pi R squared (area) wih Pi D
    (circumference)

    Sorry Champ!

    heh. Easy mistake to make. Note that I didn't actually post an
    answer :)

    Aye, but at least you had the equation right. Just that your units were
    out by a factor of ten to the three ;-)

    Quite right: wrong units entirely. 650mm is about 25½", so 22/7 times blah
    blah gives about 3½ sq ft for the base area. 1400mm is 4'7", so just under
    16 cu ft/100 gallons.

    If you were using it for something like, say, pickling sir.tony's wanked-out
    corpse, you'd need a lot less liquid, and I'd recommend a piss and vinegar
    mix rather than neat vinegar.

    If it takes 2 men 5 minutes to drown sir.doggy in a vat of urine,
    How long would it take Jeremy to work out the displaced vloume of his
    lungs?

    Does anyone know if there is some way of getting a calculator-type thing
    in Windows? I'm surprised they don't include one as standard!

    You're joking, aren't you?

    Please, *please*, tell me you're joking.

    (Oh, and for those who *can* find the standard Windows calculator but
    are bored of it, try the PowerToy Calculator - it does graphs and stuff,
    and looks much more impressive to innocent bystanders.)

    This is the point where the temptation to say whoosh is strongly
    countered by the Jeremy factor, so I'll just STFU.

    I did. And it was right. But then everyone else started posting
    bollocks, so I cancelled my post cos I became unsure.

    For my next trick, starting smoking an jumping off a cliff...

    Not quite all you need to know. There are two other factors to
    consider.

    Might be. Did you remember to check your thermometer and barometer.

    I am pretty sure that Cane was presenting the problem assuming STP.
