Heed your own advice, fool.
On entirely too many occasions I am indeed a fool, but I don't see where
devolving to name calling improves the conversation. Besides gently (IMHO)
chastising the intervening poster's rant, I still provided a useful answer to
the original poster's question (12+ cu. ft.) and a reference to the source.

Pounds (lbs.) are a measure of weight, not mass (which in the English system
would be slugs).
Gene Nygaard responded:
Where'd you get that idea?
Uh, 2 years of high school physics (a jillion years ago). Perhaps a few web
references will help clear the cobwebs:
