It's a new unit of measure
Authored by: Crocodile_Dundee on Friday, November 23 2012 @ 07:29 PM EST
The Florian seems such a large unit (similar to the Helen).

Can we settle on using the milli-Florian? (somewhat akin to the milli-Helen
being the amount of beauty required to launch a single ship)

Perhaps a milli-Florian is the perception that you've been paid to present a
single biased "news" article or press release?

I would like to propose this as a
new SI unit of measurement..
As the Linux kernel Has BogoMips
The number of times it takes the CPU
to go around a loop doing nothing
it seems apropos...
See wikipedia... For a better
definition

How we calculate Bogoflorians would
Be under a Extreme off topic .
