By calculation (generator: ["second_parameter@trueknowledge.com"]) I know that:
mile is the second parameter of 1 mile

I know from locally stored knowledge that:
Fact 1: 5,280 is the multiplier that converts mile and foot ([fact: ["125674461@trueknowledge.com"]])

Fact 1 is true for May 3rd 2008, 00:00:00 onwards ([fact: ["125674495@trueknowledge.com"]])
