Question A question on coffee pots...

Why on a Tim Horton's coffee pot is the top line 1363 ml? This is 5.76 cups. Why not 6 cups? Why not 1400 ml? Why this bizarre number?

This would have gone in the quick question thread, but that is toast. This has irritated me all morning, and google hasn't helped. Anyone have a clue?

The factors of 1363 are 29 and 47 if that helps...

Possibly the reservoir capacity is 6 cups, but the actual brewed coffee amount is less at 5.76 cups. My coffee pot has two lines, one for filling and one for the brewed amount.

1363ml is damn close to 48 imp. oz.

48 imp. oz = 1363.83 ml

^^^ Right, why not make it that amount if that was the line of thinking? It is such an irritating number. It is kinda like Hartley's 7 7-games segments (except) for the last one, it is six. FFS!!! Why not make it 8 6-game segments? Would that have totally screwed with the psyche of the team? Remainders suck.

I guess that makes a little more sense. Why not round to 1364, especially since the half way line is 692ml?

I think I may have had too much coffee today.

Its a conspiracy by the zionists and the Bilderberg groups coffee division.

they realized that if they made it equal number of cups that they would never be able to inject the optimum amount of mind control drugs via the secret resorvoir that comes through the power cable from their mind control laboratories in the stealth building in Lethbridge.

That's almost as good as the one I heard about Timmy's putting nicotine in the coffee to make it more addicting.

I did manage to quit smoking a while back...

Its not nicotine.

Or in short form

THC
