To All,

This was sent to me recently from a site called Bill's Punch Line (or
something close).  I made a few changes to ensure compliance with
keeping all things shell related.  Anyway, for those of you who have
trouble with metric conversions, I hope this helps:

1 million microphones = 1 megaphone
2000 mockingbirds = two kilomockingbirds
10 cards = 1 decacards
1 millionth of a shell = 1 microshell
453.6 graham crackers = 1 pound cake
1 trillion pins = 1 terrapin
10 rations = 1 decoration
100 rations = 1 C-ration
10 centipedes = 1 millipede
3 1/3 tridents = 1 decadent
2 monograms = 1 diagram
8 nickels = 2 paradigms
2 wharves = 1 paradox
