Gang:
I have been good. I have been holding my tongue, but
everybody just had to start with the slugs and the
poundals! Things are just about crazy enough that I can
introduce you to a new form of Newton's Second Law. I did
not make this up--I found it in a book.
F = m (a/g)
Now F is in pounds and m is in pounds. Doesn't that really
clarify things! WBN
