Do you think though that the Holy Spirit works in Dynes (or, probably, Gigadynes, if such exist)? I would have thought it more likely than Newtons, but who knows?
One might expect a Methodist to use CGS Dynes - but this is a unit of Force, and doesn't fit our 1960s vibe at all. Would John Bell write a hymn with Force in it? I think he, and we, are into Spirit as still, small voice; graciously awaiting invitation; never imposing against the will. With this in mind, I increasingly think the Spirit should be associated with the rather neglected concept of Admittance (or 1/oms). This is measured in Siemens; there's a great nativity joke right there, but I'm pious enough to leave it
I like the idea of a Standard Vampire. Surely we need a Standard Saint as well (someone who possesses 1.0000 HMs of holiness).
I first read that as Standard Vanguard, a car which was hellish.
Oi! That was the car of my early childhood!
I don't think it was as bad as a Rover SD1, but that's not much to say in favour of any car. My mother bought a Rover after my happy experience with a P6 3500; her car started to fall to pieces as she drove home from the dealer.
Ebors and Cantuars derive from two different measurement systems. Cantuars are vigesimal and Ebors duodecimal so the relationship is not straightforward. Also, to further complicate matters, a Cantuar rated very slightly higher than an Ebor. Technically nether unit is divisible, but roughly speaking an Ebor is equivalent to 5/6 Cantuars.
True, but doesn't the relative value of the Ebor rise north of the River Trent, possibly due to the decline in temperatures; at least until one reaches Sturgeonland at which placed Knoxes reign supreme (trust the Scots to be different). This of course only applies in the Northern Hemisphere, I expect things would be different in the Antipodes).(
It’s not so much a change in the value of the Ebor as its relative acceptance as currency. (The use of Scottish bank notes in England is analogous there - though of course the vale of a Scottish bank note is the same as an English one.)
Now we're getting into Centigrade/Celsius territory!
Does the Calvin measure the level of divinity relative to absolute depravity?
Only in Geneva. For Scotland, please refer to the Knox, above.
When we visited John Knox's house a few years back, the shop stuff were discussing a Reiki event happening there later that week. I couldn't think of someone less likely to approve of such a thing.

Since 1920, Wales moved to use the Camb in place of the Cantuar, the Ebor never having been accepted west of Offa's Dyke. Rarely tested for equivalence, an experiment in 2003 proved however that the Camb and the Cantuar can be interchanged. There is a Primatial scale of comparability but it is interpreted differently in different Provinces...

And demonstrate a clear link between metrication and grammatical convolution?

*Spell checker, incidentally, offers "Diabolical"
If I'm following this right the square root of ichabod would be sqrt(2)/2 (chabod + ichabod)
