Once you've had a few beers such measurements are pointless.... you're going to hit on her anyway.
To make the big money they just need to make some link to global warming and the government agencies will buy it.

...for warranty service, do you send it back to the ol' factory?
My coat's the one, cringing in the corner, pretending not to know me.
