   Just realized that I was confusing centimeters with millimeters. Oops. Well, at least I caught that in time ...

     @sorbus I think there was a space-program incident involving a similar confusion; can't remember the details... You're in good company, tho.

     @sorbus Found it. Space story actually different from yours: involved confusion between English & metric units http://tinyurl.com/2n2fm9

     @120new Very interesting. And at least I'm not entirely alone. Still, confusing mm with cm is pretty embarrassing.
