@birddogthecat - I think in this case you might have meant “Oops I did it again.” There’s a rich vein of this material in Gordon’s collection, that’s why he’s keeping the thread open. >:)
doo di doo di doo…wake me up, before you go-go…
… ubi loqui debuit ac potuit 
@alekz “Have Gun, Will Travel.” Wasn’t “ubi loqui debuit ac potuit” on Paladin’s business card? I was an avid watcher of the show.
OMG…are we now going to have a Paladin - Have Gun Will Travel thread?

FAB!
Gentlemen.
This thread was meant to be professional, informative and, as usual, thought provoking.
I guess it worked? =))
Look. Zero out of three is pretty good if you are going to try again.
Yes, try again… Please…? 8->
Exactly!
I have always measured my successes by how many times I tried rather than a subjective measurement of “successful outcome”.
Seems to be a safer and more achievable benchmark.
Meanwhile…
I figure we are getting closer to “Audiophile” friendly routers that will enable more WRT/Tomato features which will enhance our network Audio streaming.
I suspect that it is more inspired by the video crowd but I’ll take whatever we can get.
NB: call this a “soft” try.
What’s this… Oh! We’re back to the original topic! I had to think about why _G was bringing up routers… I forgot that this thread really wasn’t about Wham! :-))
Routers? “We got no stinking routers, Gringo”

OK Smartasses.
Eat This!
A mine shaft is 14’wide at the bottom and 10’wide at the top, 7’high.
if 1/2 the area is filled with water.How far up on the walls will the water go?
Zero. An area is a two dimensional form and cannot be “filled.”
Any other Smartasses out there? >:)
Ah, it could be a vertical shaft.
@gordon You mean volume don’t you? If a truncated cone is filled with 1/2 of the volume it can hold, how high would the water be?
The total capacity of your truncated cone would be 801.15 gallons. 1/2 that amount of water (is it water we are using?) = 400.6 gallons.
So, if we pour 400.6 gallons of water into the truncated cone, how high would it rise on the 7’ wall? Is this the question?
I get 3.5 feet. Is this correct?
If we assume that the difference from bottom to top is a consistent slope…
How did you come mathematically to the height.
Here’s one for Bill.
No looking it up!
What is Freddy Mercury’s real name? and where was he born?
@gordon Yes, I did assume a uniform slope. I also assumed the dimensions are interior diameters.
yes.
so, did you draw it or do it by math?
how?
