You're absolutely right Marv. The trouble with using off line
references is you can't cut and paste. I had to type it myself, and
nothing could be more error porne.

Well dang it Al, why didn't you say you were just being stubborn an not

Mathematical Tables which tells me I can convert an ounce (fluid) to
1.080469 cubic inches.

Interesting... I've always used 231 cubic inches per gallon of water and it's always worked out (building fishtanks... having the numbers helps). The online conversion engines yield the same numbers. It looks to me like you stuck a zero where it doesn't belong just to the right of the decimal point... the number should be 1.8046875. Just trying to keep you honest <g>.
