Re: whats BAR??? (see2k)
We had several discussions about this a month or so ago.
1 BAR = 14.5 PSI
1 ATM = 14.7 PSI
1 BAR does not equal 1 ATM
ATM = atmosphere
If you guys dont believe me: http://www.convert-me.com/en/convert/pressure
EDIT: if you input 1000 millibar and convert it, the result will be 14.5 PSI not 14.7

Boosted ZC: Don't worry about asking questions you may think are dumb. Usually, someone else wants to know the same thing but is afraid to ask.
Now, let's stop talking about atmopsheric pressure...you're starting to make me think about my job on my day off.
