Thanks for this. Now I don’t feel bad paying $5 per pound.

At least if you are lost at sea, there will be a lot of people looking for you.

But Bitcoin has neither weight nor density, so no amount of Bitcoin will be sufficient.

What weighs more, 10 pounds of lead or 10 pounds of feathers?

They both weigh the same, but I think that the ten pounds of lead would be a lot easier to carry.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Archimedes yet...
