Thank you Lord Phocas for the info. Lady Alianorra MacAiodh, I thank you
in advance for the wonderful dessert you will be presenting at
Bordermarch Baronial, but please do not tire yourself in it's
preparation. By the way, I do love it when I'm right! 

HE Santiago

Well of course the Baron is right... but then we knew that because he is
Baron. :)  

Even the US government backs him up:
  According to United States Department of Transportation - Federal
Highway
Administration in the publication MUTCD - Manual for Uniform Traffic
Control
Devices:
http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/HTM/2003r1/part3/part3a.htm#section3A05


Section 3A.05 Widths and Patterns of Longitudinal Pavement Markings
Standard:
The widths and patterns of longitudinal lines shall be as follows:

A normal line is 100 to 150 mm (4 to 6 in) wide. 
A wide line is at least twice the width of a normal line. The width of
the
line indicates the degree of emphasis. 
A double line consists of two parallel lines separated by a discernible
space. 
A broken line consists of normal line segments separated by gaps. 
A dotted line shall consist of noticeably shorter line segments
separated by
shorter gaps than used for a broken line. The width of a dotted line
shall
be at least the same as the width of the line it extends. 
Guidance:
Broken lines should consist of 3 m (10 ft) line segments and 9 m (30 ft)
gaps, or dimensions in a similar ratio of line segments to gaps as
appropriate for traffic speeds and need for delineation.

Option:
A dotted line for line extensions may consist of 0.6 m (2 ft) line
segments
and 0.6 m (2 ft) to 1.8 m (6 ft) gaps. A dotted line for lane drop/add
markings may consist of 0.9 m (3 ft) line segments and 2.7 m (9 ft)
gaps.

Greetings Bordermarchers. While away at GulfWar HE Santiago and I
undertook
a wager regarding the distance in the road lines used to divide the
lanes. I
say these lines are 3 1/2 feet long and 10 feet apart HE Santiago
believes
the distance to be 10 and 30 feet. The person who is found to be
incorrect
in their assumption must provide a desert they have cooked themselves
for
the pot luck dinner this Baronial event in April. Do we have any
volunteers
with the correct answer?            YIS ~ Alianorra
