I don't even know my weight in kilos. Stubborn Americans. Though I do find "stone" to be a bit strange.
Ok, I just went to a weight converter website. Since I weigh 135, I am 9.64 stone. I am also 61 kilograms.
It's either 12 or 14, I think. Imperial units are never nice and even.
Don't you guys use the metric system? What's up with this "stone" stuff? We're forced to learn the metric system in school in America, but of course we don't use it, except maybe liters (for...soda). Once you're set in your ways, it difficult to change. You just look at your kilometer reading on your speedometer if you end up in Canada.
