The writer understood that heat is heat. Two braindead bashers on this board (Watson & Hugh) don't understand that. Hugh thinks Joules should be measured as Watts, and Watson thinks distance should be measured as ft/sec.

As long as one takes liberties, why not measure energy in units of say ft and measure distances in units of Joules? Why be modest when you are screwing up? It is still a screwup to get any unit wrong. You're still flunking Watson. You need to revisit High School science classes. Once out of that, you can try your hand at college level courses.
