VATS OF CHOCOLATE
This is a paradox because she likes crappy milk chocolate.

So, assuming Mark wants 70% chocolate:
.85x + .45(4-x) = .7*4
2.5 liters of 85%, 1.5 liters of 45%

Of course, I might be just as likely to eat the 85% and chuck the 45%...


Haha.... Correct...but if you eat the 85% chocolate vat, there won't be any left to make 70% for TTH.

Crappy milk chocolate! That is the best kind, not the crappy part but milk chocolate.

Peek at what? When I say looking at it I mean the question. I see part of the answer in my mind, but I do not know why.

Perhaps you're psychic. What am I thinking right now?

At first I thought the color of the car was well, ugly but.....actually I like it, it is different.

I'll keep experimenting.

Mark, super paint job on our car share.

Got a mouse in your pocket, buddy? Who said anything about sharing?

Unfortunately I cannot do the chocolate question. I do not know metric. They did not teach that when I went to school.

Hey! I'm older than you, and they taught metric when I went to school. Besides, the units could be anything.

Hey markr, sorry I missed you. I like the color of the car. It is unusual. When I said I see things in my mind I do. I can't explain it or even say it is the right answer. That's the frustrating part. The part I do not know. They did not teach metric when I went to school. I never took it in college either. I actually have never needed it, not yet anyway.
Hi thoh13, I didn't mean to leave you out. So, where do you think Tryagain went? On a vacation?
Oh yeah, thanks markr, you set the car alarm off twice in the middle of the night last night. That is what I told my neighbors anyway. Laughing Laughing
Since, Tryagain took a break want to teach me anything?

It's all powers of ten, which makes things easy to convert (within the metric system).

Here are the basic units:
Length: meter (about 39 inches)
Capacity: liter (about a quart)
Mass: gram (1000 grams is 2.2 pounds)

Here are some commonly used prefixes which multiply or divide by powers of ten:
nano: one billionth
micro: one millionth
milli: one thousandth
centi: one hundredth
deci: one tenth
kilo: one thousand

Combining, you get things like:
milligram: one thousandth of a gram
kilogram: one thousand grams
centimeter: one hundredth of a meter
nanometer: one billionth of a meter
milliliter: one thousandth of a liter

I'll stop being boring now...

It seems to me that when I couldn't originate PMs, I was able to receive AND respond to them.
