Message	Between you and me it doesn't matter. If you say ft-lbs I know what you mean, but someday when you're on Jeopardy or talking to some scientist you might thank me. La-Z-Link I guess it is just another one of those strange things with the english system. I continue to keep saying ft-lb and so far no one has called me on it... =)
Follow Ups	ft/lbs - skaterltj69 09:04:14 01/12/04 Torque is measured in ft*lbs, not ft/lbs (n/m) - therinL 09:12:34 01/12/04 If you want to get real technical it is in "lb-ft" - SooperZ95 09:47:17 01/12/04 Ft*lb, and Lb*ft are interchangeable, because they are - BigTDogg (MA) 10:45:10 01/12/04 No, they actually aren't interchangable for references sake. - SooperZ95 10:50:31 01/12/04 brilliant!
