"50 Stone".
Can we switch to another arbitrary measurement? I propose we start weighing things in fully laden ultra-large crude carriers. The bear weighs 0.0006 FLULCCs.
Also: the American date format is stupid.
Edmund, Your native American name is "Makes stupid points". A stone is a unit equivalent to 14 pounds, so the bear weighs 700 pounds.
Yes, we all watched Billy Madison and had a laugh... 25 years ago, have a cookie.
My point still stands.
#36. What, it is made from 50 stones ?
