MIT to Recalibrate the Smoot

runstephenMember

I don't post much here but saw this good April Fool's piece and thought some might get a kick out of it. Guessing many have been to Boston and walked over the Mass Ave bridge at some time.

Also lots of acronym jokes such as "its office of Facilities, Online Operations, and Logistics (FOOL)"
and
"SMaLR’s four-month deliberation included a remeasurement of Oliver Smoot at MIT’s Institute of Nano Capacity and Height (INCH), where he officially registered at 65.7500 inches (1.67005 meters) and his ear was measured at an unchanged 2.48031 inches (62.999874 millimeters)."

Don't fall for anything today,
Stephen
