        Cool! Check this out…

        The following is a list of the first two rivers by outflow and the Mississippi in acre-foot:

        River Outflow (ac-ft/s)
        Amazon 181.6
        Ganges–Brahmaputra–Meghna 35.6
        Mississippi 17.3

        Crazy that the top is over 5 times more than the next one 😮. The largest outflow in North America and the one I’ve seen in person is the Mississippi, which is only 9.5% the outflow of the Amazon. The Amazon is over 10 times more than the Mississippi, which I thought was humongous in person 😮.

        On to sewers, which is what one of the uses for the acre-foot according to your quote. The following is a list wastewater generated by location:

        Location Generation (ac-ft/s)
        Asia 5,073.6
        NA & Europe 2,124.6
        All 3 Continents 7,198.2

        So the outflow of the Mississippi alone is greater than twice the wastewater of Asia, North America, and Europe combined 😮!

        My math may need to be checked 😬

          Yeah, it’s so unbelievable. The acre is much too large a unit to fit into the astrophysical canon.

        It’s a capitalization issue caused by its COBOL processing code.

        The correct is atto-Farraday.

    I’ll be honest, I sometimes find your comics a bit hit or miss. No shade, just the humour doesn’t always match what I like. But this one is hilarious. You killed it. I audibly laughed when I got to the end.

      I find all of them hilarious. With this one, I predicted the ending, but they way they celebrated gave me a chuckle.

        Thank you. 😊
        TBH, I like comics that don’t pack all of the fun in the last panel. They’re harder to write though, so I don’t make them that often.

      Thanks. ☺️
      Actually, Hit-or-Miss was my nickname in highschool. Some liked it, some didn’t. 😉
