Eric, how about allowing for one more significant figure in the weight category? Most scales measure to the tenth of a pound these days. [Editorial Note: The subject was supposed to say sig figs. Eric, how about letting the person who starts a thread modify the subject. You know, for idiots like me that catn' tpye.] Thanks, Jeff

Hi Jeff, I didn't mean to ignore your request in the other thread. It's not too hard to do. I'll try to squeeze it in for the next release. eric Smile

I thought maybe Jeff weighed himself in Fig Newtons. That's a novel concept for a method of measurement. The brits have their stones, maybe we could have Fig Newtons. I wonder how many Fig Newtons it would take to weigh what I do.... k

Yeah, I'd get a huge balance scale. I could put me one one side of the scale, and put a bunch of fig newtons on the other side until it balances. Only a) that would be a lot of fig newtons and b) I'd keep eating them because, as someone likes to say around here, I loves me some fig newtons! (Could I also use rasberry and apple newtons? Loves them too!)
