Is this where you lecture about the meter being based on the speed of light or something? You know the speed of light has only been measured two-ways and the one way speed of light could in theory be different... It's only ASSUMED it's the same. Crazy.

So what you are really saying is that the Registered Trade Name "E-Z READ" is false advertising because in truth it's barely readable.

I'm taking it to the next Antiques Roadshow. I bet it's worth a couple grand, give or take.
