Here's a system I created for a fictional alliance of alien species: Base = 12 Basic unit of time = based on the "average day" of the species' homeworlds (I don't remember how long) Length = distance light traveled in a fraction of the base time (I don't remember how long) Mass = based on the mass of a proton - 12^24 * proton-mass (.133g) Temperature = 1/144 of the difference between absolute zero and the triple point of water (-.01 C) = 1.9 K That's as far as I got. -- "A silent mouth is sweet to hear" - Irish proverb ICQ: 18656696 AOL: NikTailor http://members.tripod.com/~Nik_Taylor/X-Files/
