Re: Trivia question



Hi All.........

Just curious if there has ever been any discussion of a "standard" for
taking and stating OTT measurements.  Specifically, how much accuracy
should be implied by the measure.  Don't want to make a big deal over a
small thing, but, when you consider the odd shapes and ribbing of the
pumpkins as well as their resting positions on sloping or uneven ground, it
seems a bit ridiculous to state an OTT of 400.8 inches.
