Move around when I am asleep.

I woke up and it was at the corner of table, about to fall over.

To my left was a 20oz liter of Pepsi.

I'm sure they are planning something...

Damn spiffy customary system.

Why can't we assimilate to metric? Everyone uses it.

It's U.S vs the world scenario

The same as Great Britain vs Rest of Europe - We (rest of Europe) have kilograms and related, British have pounds, ounces and God-knows what.

There's a whole article about it...

I sense British Imperialism at work...

Metric is cold and unfeeling.

A foot is like feet, 12 inches like 12 hours. And so we measure worth in weight of time and passing. Not in cold unfeeling 10s.

Crazy reductionists. Get a freakin gazebo.

its very hard to calculate mass with creatures that are constantly losing theirs :wacko:

Well, we just need to figure out a time during their life cycle when the slugs have the same mass, and then measure with that.

Calculate:

Slug mass.

Average slug mass loss per set unit of time.

Use it to calculate present-time slug mass.

Sounds like a paradox.

what would you use to measure a pair of ducks?

Duckweights.

Or scale/ruler.
