They're pretty quick when muscling up to Denny's Garden Bar

Man. I should have known better then to bring up the snail speed thing...

I believe I read it to be .000363 MPH.

<A HREF="http://www.el-carmelo.palo-alto.ca.us/staff/Kent/animalsite/table6.html">This site</A> did an expeiment and found that snail can travel roughly 25.8 feet an hour, which is about 1/204th of a MPH. I don't know how to convert that to decimals, so you'll have to. :-)
