  That's a hoot, seeing as you're fishing for a frame
  of reference for a speed, like some sort of /context/ for it.
  It's almost as if you're bent out of shape or have a bone
  to pick with the speed lacking its context.

  But here's the kicker - you're dropping a question /yourself/
  that's so bare-bones /it's missing the context/ that would
  make it clear enough to answer without having to play
  a guessing game about what you're getting at.
