One final thing: distance to the horizon = sqrt (1.5 x observer's height in feet). *Nerdiness ^10*
That novice 957Chatterton is so lucky to have help and advice like this from experienced clear thinkers like you.
Thats what I love about the *cough* Free-Thought community.
Your reply was meaningless, besides the intent to insult.

Yeah, it works out around that for me too, though I'm an inch or two shy of the regulation six feet. That's only when I'm standing on the ground, of course; mostly I inhabit a fourth floor flat, elevating me by some forty feet. Since I live near the centre of town, this is just about the only way I can see the horizon.
I'm an inch shy, but my view of the horizon is huge. I have Google Earth!
