The joke has got so old that someone has knocked up a conversion script for miles to football fields.
Also the payload is around the mass of seven and a half Volkswagen Beetles.
Libraries of Congress? I've got nothing.

I don't want the bulk of 'AOL User mentality' on Linux desktops trashing the direction of a good solid OS.

A bit late for that. 35 years, 4 months, and 15 daystoo late, to be precise.

Who needs to remember with sites like this?... http://www.convertunits.com/fr...

Nuclear Energy is dangerous, it produces a lot of hazardous wastes.

And solar doesn't?

Not in this scale. Worlds easier to recycle/reprocess. And it's less risky when scaled into ZWhs.

it seems like this exists primarily to address shortcomings that Java has because it hasn't come out with new versions for so long.

Yes, because 100 days is a very long time.

No, I'm just concerned for the environment as well as my time, so I fly wherever I can.

Distance between LHR and JFK is 5555 km. This is about 37.5% of a 747's range, so assuming it would need a similar percentage of its maximum fuel, this means it will use 91252 liters of fuel. At about 450 passengers, this is 202.8 liters/passenger. Jet fuel density is about 0.8 kg/L.

A Freedom class ship uses about 12800 kg of fuel per hour. Traveling for six days, this is 1843200 kg, or 421.8 kg/passenger for maximum capacity.

These calculations are somewhat rough as those are different types of fuel and one could argue that releasing the pollution high in the atmoshpere is worse, but overall, sailing won't achieve anything, except perhaps wasting everyone's time.
