[ODE] messing around with units

If precision is more important to you, then I suggest using the "double" 
version of ODE. Then, use actual SI units : meters, kilograms, seconds. 
Plug 0.032 in for length, 1.0 in for weight, and 1.0 in for time. Only 
use float if you are tweaking units by hand to make them "play right".

Cheers,
