Ok Math's wizards

[AJS-]

How come the mass of 1 donkey is greater than the mass of 140 thin cats???

[sleep envy]

but 10k thin cats is the same as 4 dinosaurs

[central]

Math's what wizards?

[AJS-]

And all the donkeys available, some 14 billion, still less that Jupiter. I wonder if they have actually tested this?

[2something]

The mass of 6,000,000,000 black holes is balanced with 0.1 Milky Way.

[Maxf]

The mass of 300 dinosaurs is balanced with 14,000,000,000 flies.

Why wouldn't they?

Well even if you could get jupiter on to one end of the scales, where would you get 14 billion donkeys?

Because a donkey's mass is the same as 200 thin cats.

exactly!
a thin cat has a mass of 2Kg,
a donkey has a mass of 400Kg.

gosh, that really was a brain puzzler

[AJS-]

How many 400KG Donkeys have you seen?

[SJobson]

I don't carry scales or a newton balance with me when I visit Weston-super-Mare so I have no idea how much a donkey weighs.

[Salgar]

How many super-mares in a donkey?

[speedychrissie]

here is one of my donkeys:


i have never tried to weigh him myself, but i would estimate that he weighs somewhere between 399 and 401Kg (its only a rough guess )

[AJS-]

400kg it is not.

"ematic"

Bugger, I've just noticed that. Any way to change the title as I normally side with the language police on these things.

[dibbers006]

It wouldn't let me balance the Sun Vs. Cats

I was really looking forward to how many cats we need to burn to keep us going when the Sun runs out

Nope, it will have to be act of contrition.

[Dr Jekyll]

One octopus is the equivalent of 8 cats.

That type of defeatist, cynical comment pretty much sums up everything that is wrong with this country today - hang your head in shame sir...

It's not defeatist it's realistic. It's common sense. Your pie in the sky idealism is the problem with this country. Now back to the Sociology department with you.
