There's a shareware program called "engineering power tools" or something or
other that sits in a wide thin window at the top of the screen and has all
these pull down menus.  It calculates all kinds of things for you and is
extremely helpful.  Includes all the moi calculations and bending formulas
for different beams with various constraints.  Also has all kinds of EE
stuff and even some ChemE stuff (scary!)

If nothing else it has a great conversion factor section.  I have it at work
and use it all the time but forgot the name.  Maybe one of you knows what it
is?

    Wow, sounds neat!  Probably a lot neater that what I plan to do.  I'll do
it anyway and if nobody wants it, that's OK, too.  Let us know when you
find out what the software is called and how to get it.  I hope the ChemE
stuff is pretty idiotproofed if I'm going to use it!
