Ever read one of the Mars Novels and when faced with a passage that reads, “I traveled for 500 haads and twelve Zodes later met with ….”
ok, so that kinda messes with the flow of the novel… Stop reading, dig out the calculator and pen and paper, try to find the distance-time charts … what book and page were they on…. Oh crap, I’ll just not care.
But now, thanks to Jon Nixon, we now have a means to work this easily. This is especially useful for writers of fan-fic or those who want to mark their books with Earthly conversions.
Or for those who just like these sort of things.
When I asked for these programs, I specified three rows: Barsoom measurements, British Measurements and Metric (for those who are more modern than we Americans). Plus conversions for hours, days, minutes, etc.
What Mr. Nixon provided exceeded my requests and I give to you the result.
