Or, you could multiply the meter value by 3.28. Or at the very least, matched up the answers on Tracer's first post ... I didn't change the order or anything ...
1m = 39.4in = 3.28ft [addsig]

| Most people are about an inch or so shorter at night than in the morning. this I think depends on your total height, the shorter you are the less there is to compress so there is less variation. |
The spine contracts during the day up to about a half an inch even - one of the many reasons why we sleep lying down.
And I've always been of the belief that the only 'correct' spelling and grammar is whatever you need to use to get your point across... TB, though he makes plenty of typos, never fails to do this.

Surely the main reason is that if you fell asleep standing up, you would just fall over?
