  With all the the talk [torque:)] about the Essex's loose tuning pins, I have wondered what measurement unit you guys over there use. I have a small conversion program on my computer and it has torque measurements in, amongst others; pound-force foot (lbf-ft) and pound-force inch (lbf-in). 
  If one converts this to metric;
  1 pound-force foot = 0.1382552 kilogram-force meter (kgf-m)
  1 pound-force inch = 0.1152124 kilogram-force meter (kgf-m)
