    How much is a stone, anyway? Nobobdy ever told me *googles* ahhhh...!
    A stone is 14 pounds.
    A pound is 16 ounces.

    According to my weights:
    2.5 pounds = 1.1 kilograms
    5 pounds = 2.3 kilograms
    10 pounds = 4.5 kilograms.
    Cowardice is to run from the fear;
    Bravery is not to never feel the fear.
    Bravery is to be terrified as hell;
    But to hold the line anyway.

    Thanks, generally saw that, but I guess others might not know either

    The Really short Club:
    --------------------

    Al Khalifah - 6"2 (not sure exactly what that means)
    ShadesWolf - 6"
    Ldvs - between 5'11" and 6"

    Is there anyone else in this club? It is very exclusive and small...

    But what is the X,Y notation that some people use?

    If you consider 6" to be small then what of those under 6"? dwarves?

    6' is tall, 6" is short. " means inches and ' means feet. Therefore everyone in the really short club is under half a foot tall.

    Crazy-ass islanders and their wayward subjects. Methinks we should take another go to bring them into the fold... so that I can understand how heavy and tall they are! >_

    I see, thanks for the explanation, it can prevent embarrassing situations Still, I share The Wizard's opinion. Perhaps the inch and foot system was useful in 1500 AD but it's no longer pertinent.

    I'm 6'. Which I'm content with-not too short, but not too tall. It's a nice height.

    Actually, that's about average, if you catch my drift

    See why it is the really short club?
