And "thick" is the density of my head at 07:30 and yes! My coffee is steaming! I wonder how the garden is doing? (And I still don't like listening to U2! )
True, but that still doesn't give us enough information.
I've been building and tinkering with guns my whole life and specialize in muzzleloaders and this is nothing more than a "steam gun." Or at least it can thought of in those terms. (Helps my feeble brain to associate with things I know about. lol) And without knowing the initial head pressure, i.e., propellant force, we cannot safely and surely conclude a velocity without a chronometer.
Again, a firearm analogy: Without out knowing the pressure behind the mass displacement, then the only way to determine velocity (as in muzzle velocity with out knowing pressures developed by a specific powder/propellant charge) would be with a chronometer. Or at least that would be the easiest way...
Since I have become jaded to the various solutions proposed by the Republicans, Democrats, Sierra Club, ACLU, etc. I have elected to solve the problems as they affect me. It solves both my gas and illegal immigrant problems.
I have hired illegal immigrants to push my car. They're plentiful and cheaper than buying gas. Then I pay them in Pesos so they have to go home to spend it.
Welcome to the asylum! Lot's of good folks here, plus a few ol' crackpots! You're bound to make friends and maybe even meet the person of your dreams here - I sure did!
A way off the island that no one but me knew about!
Hmmmm... Good question! Obviously, I would want my lady, but knowing how she feels about camping, I don't think I'd want to put her through that. Soooo... Next choice: Good health! Since I've taken and taught several survival courses over the years, I'm confident that I could get by quite well as long as my health was good. Anything/everything else would be a luxury. Maybe a guaranteed book/movie deal when I'm rescued?
Ok, first we need to know if you were referring to this, the 21st century - in which case, I have no clue as there are still roughly 92 1/2 years left in which influential books could be published - or the 20th century.
If it's the 20th century you refer to, then I'd say the Bible; Between folks some folks hoping to prove it's contents and others hoping to dis-prove it's contents and still others who just flat out disagree... Well, it certainly influenced a lot of people.
If, on the other hand, you meant books which were WRITTEN during "this century" - I suppose that creates a whole new dialogue...

Everything you see and experience is your creation. Which means you are never separate from it. So, stop whining about your creation and create something new.
Find your birthday and then find your tree. This is fun and somewhat accurate and in line with Celtic astrology.

A blonde and a brunette were running a ranch together in Louisiana. They decided they needed a bull to mate with their cows to increase their herd. The brunette took their life savings of $600 dollars and went to Texas to buy a bull.
She eventually meets with an old cowboy that would sell her a bull.
"It`s the only one I got for $599, take it or leave it." She buys the bull and goes to the local telegram office and says, "I`d like to send a telegram to my friend in Louisiana that says: Have found the stud bull for our ranch, bring the trailer."
The man behind the counter tells her, "Telegrams to anywhere in the U.S. are $.75 per word." She thinks about it for a moment and decides. "I`d like to send one word, please." "And what word would that be?" inquires the man.
"Comfortable." replies the brunette.
The man asks, "I`m sorry miss, but how is your friend gonna understand this telegram?"
The brunette replies, "My friend is blonde and reads REAL slow, when she gets this, she will see COM-FOR-DA-BULL."
Absolutely none! Every decision - good or bad - that I've made in the past has led me to the place I am now and I love it here!
If I had it to do all over again, I'd do it exactly the same way if I knew that I'd wind up here and now! The only way I'd change anything at all is if it would get me here sooner...
An elderly couple were driving across the country. The woman was driving when she got pulled over by the highway patrol. The officer said, "Ma`am did you know you were speeding?" The woman, hard of hearing, turns to Her husband and asks, "What did he say?" The old man yells, "He says you were speeding!" The patrolman says, "May I see your license?" The woman turns to Her husband and asks again, "What did he say?" The old man yells, "He wants to see your license!" The woman gave the officer Her license. The patrolman says, "I see you are from Arkansas. I spent some time there once and went on a blind date with the ugliest woman I`ve ever seen." The woman turned to Her husband and asked, "What did he say?" And the old man yells, "He said he knows your sister!"
A magician was working on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. The audience would be different each week, so the magician allowed himself to do the same tricks over and over again. There was only one problem: The captain`s parrot saw the shows each week and began to understand how the magician did every trick. Once he understood he started shouting in the middle of the show: "Look, it`s not the same hat." "Look, he is hiding the flowers under the table." "Hey, why are all the cards the Ace of Spades?" The magician was furious but couldn`t do anything; it was, after all, the captain`s parrot. One day the ship had an accident and sank. The magician found himself floating on a piece of wood in the middle of the ocean with the parrot, of course. They stared at each other with hate, but did not utter a word. This went on all day. And then another and another. After a week the parrot said: "OK, I give up. Where`s the boat?"
