Reply to "new math"

I just retired from teaching automotive technology at Mesa Community College. A few years back, one of my students was rebuilding a carburetor, and had to set the float level. The chart said to set it at 1/4", but the little ruler that came with the carb kit was in 1/32's. This 22 year old thought about it for several minutes, then said he had absolutely NO idea what to do. I figured I'd just seen a new low until later that semester, a different student had no idea how many inches were in a foot. I give up. --Steve
