    Holy f***ing s**t! I didn't believe this at first so I actually
    tried it. Alejandro is right. It even does conversions, e.g.
      "J to ergs"
    This probably effectively replaces the very old UNIX "units" program.

    It doesn't do "time to dismantle the earth" (which is in my paper
    on planetary disassembly) but one can't have everything (at least
    not yet...)
