[QUOTE="davej, post: 1983957, member: 13437"] You could quibble about the top point he makes here. I don't think this is correct. A kilogram is not defined as a force. It is a measure of mass. Something that is 1 Kg on earth is still 1 Kg on the moon. In the English system you would convert kilograms to Slugs. The "small deviation" is due to the fact that expecting a factor of ten relationship between mass and earth-weight is totally bogus. [/QUOTE]
