that's 15.4 lbs of rotten meat and 88 lbs. of skin cells....  that only Americans [and the English] can equate to.
[and a stone probably equal an uneven number of pebbles (which NOBODY knows the density of )]
TRUE STORY-
One of my customers is a small firm of ALL Russian born fellows doing development of vacuum plasma vapor deposition (tool coatings) who are an extremely sharp bunch of guys that have a super sense of humor.
Having worked on a number of projects with them, they share some of their “inside jokes” with me. They say that after they get here, they understand how the US beat the USSR in the space race days. They are introduced to the stupid system of measurement we work with  and immediately know that  “every American HAS TO BE A GENIUS.”
