    We have established that "jim beam" believes the newton to be a unit of
    torque!

    I had a hampster named "Newton" once. And Newtons would be a a
    component of torque, of course.

    ....do y'all ever trim the quotes out of the thread?

    The SI unit for force, the newton, is not capitalized unless it is used
    to start a sentence. However, when referring to the soft cookie filled
    with fig jam, Newton is capitalized since it is a proper name.
