How much hair does one need to be able to flip it? Separating the question by dimension, I need very few hairs do it, if only long enough.
Read a bit today on dimensional formulae after alphabetizing a list of words for coffee from languages of differing orthographies. That was fun for a start, and now I feel like alphabetizing units by their dimensions: first would come the dimensionless constants, then dimensionless units, followed by length, area, volume; mass.. starts to get funny here, and the fun is a bit like gray code, but brighter!
the dimensionless units might like better to be folded over the rest showing their spacious origins;
