Re: [aroid-l] Universal measuring device

That's kind of funny about Jamaice, because one of their biggest exports, if no their biggst, is bauxite - aluminum ore!

A solid object is easier to carry, and less subject to damage than a metric plastic, wood, or metal measuring device, and is less subject to damage. This may be a futile gesture, but I think that the collective international minds reading and contributing to this forum might be able to determine a universally available object that would work.


Although the "crush factor" might be a problem in transportation, I'd nominate the ubiquitous aluminum soft drink/beer can. They're everywhere.
