Joules, Watts, HP are the most common

Those are not the same type of units.

But usually Watts or HP as work is usually measured as a rate, but you can't even explain this.

That is as stupid as saying that distance (m, ft, etc) can just as well be measured as a rate (m/s or ft/s). Hello, distance and velocity are two different things. So are Work and Power.

Do you seriously think anyone would bother to try and discuss any fine point of AGW with you when you are so dense on such a simple thing as the above?
