Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

We decided (jokingly of course) that both customary and SI units are garbage and invented our own measurement system all based on our largest 2" diameter pneumatic cylinder, which we named "Pneumasiah", and each type of unit was all called the same name: a Pneum

These units exchange to:
-1 Pneum (pressure) = 60 PSI (pressure the piston operates at)
-1 Pneum (length) = 24 3/8" (Measured stroke Pneumasiah)
-1 Pneum (time) = Time Pneumasiah takes to extend 1 Pneum(length) at 1 Pneum(pressure), not officially measured yet
-1 Pneum (mass) = Weight of Pneumasiah, not officially measured yet

Funny quote related:

"how fast does our robot accelerate?" "Oh, about 6 Pneums per Pneum squared"
