This is a good one.

Where did this come from?
At September 10, 2011 9:14 PM, Katya said...: Ummm, I think I was browsing some Wikipedia category about obscure units of measurement. (Everyone does that, right?)
At September 11, 2011 9:17 PM, Katya said...: Scratch that. I remember now that I was looking up something about Frederic Chopin on Wikipedia, so I went from there to other meanings of "Chopin," and from there to obscure Scottish units of measurement. (Wikipedia is kind of a dangerous place for me.)
