I live in a metric country, Lynn. That's the only reason I have 1760 yards to a mile embedded in my brain.

It falls into your category of "information used regularly" for me, but is probably superfluous to most. My gray cells are preoccupied with bilinguality. I didn't make any comment about young people in my post about online references. I think you're referring to Lady Emsworth's post to which I replied.
