      They would have come round again eventually.
      My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

        I am too young to have been taught any others.

                Repeat after me:

                16 ounces in a pound (unless it's a troy pound, when for some reason there's 12 ounces in a pound instead).

                14 pounds in a stone.

                112 pounds in a hundredweight.

                8 stones in a hundredweight.

                20 hundredweights in a ton.

                2240 lbs in a ton.

                That's a proper British Imperial ton, not any of these johnny foreigner type tonnes or short tons or whatever.
