"Converted to imperial units, the speed of light isapproximately... 670,616,629.384 miles per hour, or almost one foot per nanosecond."
I just hope that people realise the error was on their part, not ours. (Probably, considering that they also had a story today titled "Jolie Adopts Fourth Child", which began "Angelina Jolie today adopted a third child...")
