Furlong per Fortnight

We were discussing this term earlier in my office. I definetly think that we should adopted this as the new standard! LOL. Well maybe not, SI all the way (which essentially means metres and seconds if you don't know)! The funny thing is if you go to Google and type "furlong per fortnight in metres per second" you get:
1 furlong per fortnight = 0.000166309524 meters per second, obviously the correct answer. Don't you just love Google.. though I doubt I will use this conversion tool very often. Unless, however, it does catch on and we replace SI with it! Oh and if you have ever felt the need to know more about the measure of distance known as the Furlong why not try the ever informative [Wiki]... can't just big up Google!
