Wow that is random 
it never occurred to me that letters appeared at different times. I guess I just accepted that it’s like the book of Genesis, “and on the 8th day, He created the alphabet, and forever more people mispeled ervytehnig.”

I love fresh lemon or lime in my water too. Although can be harsh on your teeth/enamel so I usually try to use a reusable straw 
Cucumber is tasty too

Do they install an extra step in a leap year? Just wondering.

Lol they should! A secret passage or something
Maybe that’s why there’s the quarter step at the end, to avoid installing a temporary “leap step”…

I mile is about 1.61 Km, with 1 gallon being about 3.79 Liters. Not going to do the math to get that down to 1 km, sorry.

If my calculations are correct, it’s 1,46 liters per square kilometre

1 cubic mile = 1.61 km * 1.61 km * 1.61km
= 4.71 cubic kilometres
1 gallon per cubic mile --> 3.79 L for 4.71 cubic kilometres
3.79 L/4.71 cubic kilometres = 0.80 L per cubic kilometre
groans in pain Why, imperial? Why?!?
