but it can not be more then 1 lb. (.453KG)

Official "Mini-Sumo" rules allow robots that are up to 500kg (1.1lbs).

I think that's actually about 1100 lbs, not 1.1 lbs. But I could be wrong.


Thanks for pointing out Chris' error.




My error?

Um, what kind of back street CRACK (1) are you on?  Has all this fame
affected your eyesight Steve?  Can you not SEE the DECIMAL POINT before
the 453???(5)

1 POUND is about zero POINT four five three Kilos

Iain, ~NOW~ do you see why we have to talk in imperial measurements???
clearly the metric system with all its division by 10's (2) is confusing
to Americans. (3)(4)

Chris

1. OR some other lame small town Indiana illicit mind altering drug.

2. And ease of transferring from one unit of measure to another

3. If Lar and Steve are anyone to judge by.

4. Wasn't there some big screw up about a satellite not launching, or
some  rocket ship being blown up cause of some Metric/Imperial screw up?

5. And yet, your still king of the MUPpet's?

(...) Chris, Much as I hate to intefere with an imperial beatdown (and I hate it a lot) you said 500kg(1.1pounds)... 500kg=1100pounds. You obviously meant 500g=1.1pounds though. Tim (19 years ago, 29-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
