    The story says that might also be forbidden.

      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

          This will never get past the Germans.

          In Germany eggs come in packs of six or twelve, and they have a word Dutzend for a dozen.
          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                Something I've found is that they break about 40% of them before they reach the shelf. They then randomly consolidate the remainder and sell them, which means that it's not uncommon to get a box of nice free range organic eggs that has a couple of pauper eggs hidden in it.

                  French has douzaine. In Switzerland I've seen them in packs of 4, 6, 10, 15. You can also pick your own out of a tray. "Picnic eggs" are hard boiled and painted pretty colours. They come in boxes of 6. They do however indicate either the average or minimum weight of each egg.

                  How many are there in a complete tray?

                    It's 1.1023115 short Megatons.

                    For proper Imperial long tons, it's about 0.98.
                    Can we have that in tons and tonnes?
