I've just finished my web search for the conversion from gallons to cubic feet (and vice versa), and have come across the fact that 1 gallon=.13368 cubic feet. This may seem trivial, considering none have asked about it, and it should be a commonly known fact, but I am posting this because it is slightly contrary to something Ray posted earlier. I'm not saying Ray is wrong, because he was right when he posted that 1 cubic foot= 28 liters and 1 gallon= 3.785 liters. I am only warning against using those two equations to derive a formula for gallons / cubic feet. I've done some searching amongst quite a few sites (most found with a google search for: gallons cubic feet conversion table), and this is the most accurate number i can find.
There ya go. If it helps one, I've done good. If it helps none, I've only helped myself.
