Re: Things you never noticed II: I never noticed the first thread
When Durkon calls on Thor's specialty to break Control Weather, the lightning was said to have struck at least four miles away. Sound travels at around 350 meters/sec in air, which means it takes 5 seconds to go one mile (1600m). Durkon only counts to four.
Thus, either the viscoelasticity of the atmosphere is higher than on Earth (possible if the composition has a bunch of crazy-larger molecules), or miles are measured differently in OOTSverse (probably much more likely).
