Here's another rumor straight from my extremely unreliable sources: the esteemed IP's job was to retrieve the Conversion module from the European associates on the program, and the small connector. Forgot the connector. As someone said, good intentions and we love our Programmer.

How many beautiful, aesthetic, pleasing, gorgeous--adjectives can I think of for all SA's; please don't ask. Super. Thank you.

Good intentions...a ton (2000 lbs) is close to a metric ton (2206.4 lbs)... ie: (1 US ton = 0.90718474 metric tons). Now a megaton or MTon is 1000 metric tons or 2,204,622,622 lbs.

The Idiot Programmer confused "tons" with "metric tons". There is a rumor that he worked on the mission to Mars that crashed because some of the engineers used metric measure and other engineers used the kind of measuring based on the length of King George's foot.

Very nice specimen. I think TKW is 23 tons, not 23 megatons 😁

the red arrow on the map just above is the location of the SA meteorite fall...or is at least meant to be it.
