[AT] Wire size

[George Willer]

Some measurements are completely incomprehensible.  Maybe the wires in
question are measured like rope... by circumference?  Metric measurements
were never meant to be understood.

For example... who can tell if a lady who weighs 60 KG is fat or skinny or
just right?

Or... If the temperature is 21 Celsius should you wear a jacket?

Who knows?
