Between Houston and Austin on December 18, 2012, I overheard the following breif conversation between Houston Center and another aircraft:
Aircraft:
“Houston Center, can you give me a current altimeter setting?”
Center:
“At your altitude, it is 29.92.”
Aircraft:
“Uhhhh — yeah.”
[A brief pause.]
Aircraft:
“Guess I will see that one in the back of IFR magazine next month.”
