Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Prone position tips?
An bit of background on the league:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_(unit)
The league is a variable distance of approximately three miles, but
historically most often defined as the distance a man can walk in an
hour. The fathom, conversely, is used exclusively for measuring the
depth of water. Examining magnitudes alone, the league is 2640 times
larger, however, since the implied vector directions are perpendicular,
their cross-product is zero and one cannot be said to be a multiple of
the other.

I like to call it "The Fifty Fathoms Club" as that's as deep as a K350
goes.
