1000 acres means absolutely nothing to most EU residents, for instance.
Right. If I hadn't once owned 100 of moorland myself, I'd have no real idea either. (An acre is roughly 70 yards square, but who even knows that? And Ray is right about hectares.)
But don't mess with the verbatim quote: slippery slope there.
