AND, now that we use CCYY, it's gonna be a Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooong time before numbers'll line up, again...

there is only ten ounces in a pound of Gold.. 16 ounces in a pound of feathers.. Gold is weighed differently because it is a precious metal
