BTW, weren't you an OSU Engineering grad?

True.
True, that is the unknown
True (just substitute gasoline for water in the equation)
Well, you got the OSU grad correct ....... but NOT an engineer. My first year I was in the college of engineering, with plans on transferring to the Colorado School of Mines, to become a geophysical engineer.
