[QUOTE="rammac, post: 2136630, member: 27761"] SAAMI stated in their pressure standards documents... [ATTACH type="full"]257232[/ATTACH] I'm a firm believer in science and math but they need to be balanced against reality so that we don't go astray when our theories lead us down the wrong road. I agree that coming up with a conversion is handy but I don't trust the basic CUP to begin with so converting a less than perfect pressure unit to another pressure unit doesn't make the numbers any more real.
