Up there in the Great White North, they use those dinky little

gallon. ;-)


I suspect it's not the litre which is different, but the gallon which is
different. The British Imperial Gallon occupies 277.4 in^3, while the
gallon you're thinking of occupies 231 in^3.

What's your opinion of converting US speedometers from miles/hr to
furlongs/fortnight?
